Are static ifs always checked outside of runtime? Is it 
possible for a static if condition to be undeterminable outside 
of runtime, or would such a condition throw a compiler error?

'static if' is always run at compile time, so it needs access to 
compile time information. Fortunately, you can access quite a lot 
at compile time in D.
