          Issue ID: 16093
           Summary: Trivial case of passing a template function to another
                    template function doesn't compile
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: x86_64
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: dmd
          Assignee: nobody puremagic.com

void bar(alias f)() {
    f();
}

void main() {
    void f()() {
    }
    bar!f();
}

Error: function test.main.f!().f is a nested function and cannot be accessed
from test.bar!(f).bar


Non-template nested functions are accepted:

void main() {
    void f() {
    }
    bar!f(); // ok
}
