----
bug.d(15): Error: Comparison between different enumeration types __c_ulonglong
and __c_longlong; If this behavior is intended consider using
std.conv.asOriginalType
----

The exact error message depends on the platform.

The types should behave like any other signed/unsigned types w.r.t. comparison.

__c_ulonglong et.al. have been introduced as enums with magic mangling, thus
comparison triggers those enum comparison errors.
