           Version: D2
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW

The DIP[1] states that the bottom type must satisfy the following conditions:

is(noreturn[] : T[])
is(noreturn* : T*)
is(noreturn function(S) : T function(S), S...)
is(noreturn delegate(S) : T delegate(S), S...)

None of these work ATM.
