           Summary: Unexpected type names with template typedefs
           Product: D
           Version: 2.014
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2

struct foo(T)
{
        T value;
}

template bar(T)
{
        typedef foo!(T) bar;
}

void main(string[] args)
{
        writefln((bar!(int)).stringof); // prints 'bar'
        writefln((bar!(float)).stringof); // also prints 'bar'
}

Seeing as these two are different instantiations of the bar template, it seems
weird to me that they have the same type name.

The typedef maps to bar!(something), hence should the name as well.
