So I thought that this is right:
core.cpuid.fp16c /// Is FP16C supported
core.cpuid.amdMmx /// Are AMD extensions to MMX supported?

But in Phobos we have:
std.ascii.isASCII
std.utf.UTFException

More than that UtfException (which looks correct for me) is marked as
"Scheduled for deprecation" because of incorrect name.

These cases should be explicitly stated in dstyle.html once we
discovered correct naming in this NG thread (I hope we will).

But for now we still doesn't have naming convention.


We're moving towards using ASCII rather than Ascii as the naming style for abbreviations.

(The style rule about joining words only concerns itself with whole words, not abbreviations.)
