           Summary: Lambda argument to templated function changes its
                    signature forever
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All

This code should compile:
---
void f(T, R)(R delegate(T[]) del)
{
    T[] src;
    del(src);
}

void main()
{
    int[] delegate(int[]) del;
    f!int(del); // ok
    f!Object(a => a);
    f!int(del); // fails, line 12
}
---
main.d(12): Error: template main.f does not match any function template
declaration. Candidates are:
main.d(1):        main.f(T, R)(R delegate(Object[]) del)
main.d(12): Error: template main.f(T, R)(R delegate(Object[]) del) cannot
deduce template function from argument types !(int)(int[] delegate(int[]))
---

The issue is major as compiler errors are misleading and people don't expect
such "broken forever" behaviour.

Workaround:
Specify lambda argument types, i.e. `(Object[] a) => a` instead of `a => a`.
