          Issue ID: 15941
           Summary: Regression: rbtree no longer supports classes
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: regression
          Priority: P1
         Component: phobos
          Assignee: nobody puremagic.com
          Reporter: jbc.engelen gmail.com

```
class A {}
RedBlackTree!(A, "cast(void*)a < cast(void*)b") tree;
```

This used to work, but now no longer works because of the addition of
rbtree.toString.
With a nice instantiation error:

/Library/D/dmd/src/phobos/std/format.d(2916): Error: template instance
std.format.formatObject!(void delegate(const(char)[]), const(A), char) does not
match template declaration formatObject(Writer, T, Char)(ref Writer w, ref T
val, ref FormatSpec!Char f) if (hasToString!(T, Char))
