Description Nicholas Wilson 2019-07-17 07:40:43 UTC 
Currently the error message looks like

fail_compilation/ice10212.d(12): Error: mismatched function return type inference of `int function() pure nothrow @nogc @safe` and `int`
and doesn't tell you where it inferred that the return type of the function is int.

it should say 

fail_compilation/ice10212.d(12): Error: mismatched function return type inference of int function() pure nothrow @nogc @safe and int (inferred at fail_compilation/ice10212.d(12))
