Andrej Mitrovic suggests to improve the error messages instead:

void main()
{
    int body;
}

test.d(5): Error: Cannot use keyword 'body' as a symbol name. Try to use
`body_` instead.

It seems an acceptable solution.

In hindsight, the choice of 'body' for the keyword is unfortunate. But fixing
it would cause even worse problems, so I think we're stuck with it.
