Description Ali Cehreli 2016-12-14 23:42:07 UTC 
void main() {
    for (;;) {
        scope (exit) break;
        scope (exit) continue;
    }
}

  Error: break is not inside scope(exit) bodies
  Error: continue is not inside scope(exit) bodies

The error messages are missing something like "allowed" as in

   "... is not allowed inside ..."
