          Issue ID: 13312
           Summary: JSON output for function aliases have no target
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: json
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: DMD

Currently the JSON output for a function alias produces no target. Take for 
instance this alias in rt/arrayshort.d:

alias core.cpuid.mmx mmx;

Which is done to bring mmx as a local symbol into the module. The JSON output 
for it is as follows:

   {
    "name" : "mmx",
    "kind" : "alias",
    "line" : 36,
    "char" : 26
   },

Which has no indication what-so-ever of what the target of the alias was.
