Compile with: rdmd -D -w test.d

Output:

test.d(9): Warning: Ddoc: function declaration has no parameter 
'x'
test.d(9): Warning: Ddoc: function declaration has no parameter 
'x'
hello

Using the -w flag, compilation halts on warnings but for ddoc 
warnings it doesn't. Is this intended behaviour because i find it 
confusing and inconsistent.

Honestly, -w shouldn't even exist. It changes the behavior of code which does 
introspection. And having it error out on _more_ stuff wouldn't help any.
