Michael,

I haven't tested it with D1 - frankly it's not clear to me where D1 is 
going.

There is an outstanding problem. Could you please try the following with 
your latest D1 version:

import std.stdio;

int foo(int n)
{
    int inner(int m)
    {
        int ininner(int k)
        {
           writefln("foo.n = %d", n);
           return k+m+n+1;
        }
        
        return ininner(m)+n+1;
    }

    return inner(n)+n;
}

void main()
{
    int t = foo(22);
    writefln("t = %d", t);
}

This fails with mine, and with the latest GDC I got from Ubuntu.

Thanks
Steve
