           Summary: Auto Return Doesn't Work With Nested Functions
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: rejects-valid
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD
        AssignedTo: nobody puremagic.com
        ReportedBy: dsimcha yahoo.com



This may technically be an enhancement request, but it seems like a massive,
glaring inconsistency for no good reason, so I consider it a bug.

void main() {
    auto foo() {
        return 3;
    }
}

test.d(2): function declaration without return type. (Note that constructors
are always named 'this')
test.d(2): no identifier for declarator foo()

This is parser problem, and there is no reason to reject it from dmd internally
(e.g. The return type of function literal is almost inferred).
