Description Peter Alexander 2012-12-24 17:21:46 UTC 
void foo()(auto ref int x) {}
alias foo!() bar;


$ dmd test.d
test.d(1): Error: auto can only be used for template function parameters
test.d(2): Error: template instance test.foo!() error instantiating


You get a similar error if you try to take the address of foo!()
