This does not work:

module enumtest;








Though doing this is, perhaps, unnecessary, it doesn't seem to be 
consistant with what D is supposed to be able to do.

Quoted here:

"Names at the global level can be forward referenced without needing a 
special declaration:"

Perhaps this forward referencing flexibility applies only to functions, 
structs, and classes?

Curious.
