In old dmd, we can use typedef to create strong type. Now I found it
deprecated: http://dlang.org/deprecate.html#typedef . But it can't completely
instead typedef keyword.

The following code run failed, this happened in my project.

--- code
import std.typecons;    
import std.stdio;

void testString(S)() {
    S a = "a";
    S a1 = cast(string)"a".dup;
    S b = "b";

    assert(a1 == "a");
    assert(a == a1);

    bool[S] m;
    m[a] = true;

    bool* v;
    v = (a in m);
    assert(v);
    assert(*v);

    v = (b in m);
    assert(!v);

    v = (a1 in m);
    assert(v);                 // <----- failed line
    assert(*v);
}

void main() {
    alias Typedef!string MyString;

    testString!(string)();
    writeln("string test passed");

    testString!(MyString)();
    writeln("MyString test passed");
}

I'm curious which version you made this compile with, I'm getting a
compile-time template instance failure instead (see Issue 9407), and this is
with 2.062 git-head, 2.061, 2.060 and 2.059. Older versions don't have Typedef.
