And here is why is bothering me:

cast(Unsigned!T)T.max);
The generic code above (which worked for all signed integral
types T in 2.077) must be rewritten like this in 2.078:
static if (T.sizeof >= 4)
auto max = isNegative ? cast(Unsigned!T)(-T.min) :
cast(Unsigned!T)T.max;
else
auto max = isNegative ? cast(Unsigned!T)(-cast(int)T.min) :
cast(Unsigned!T)T.max;
Now I have to translate an 1-liner in a 4-liner all around my
project.
Yes i know. In a way i agree but in another i've accepted the
thing, that's why for example there's:
https://github.com/dlang/phobos/pull/5958/files
I had to do similar things in my own stuff.
Other people had to as well.
In my stuff i've used
`cast(ubyte) (stuff * -1)`
instead of
`-stuff`
because i've verified that in both cases an asm NEG is generated.
But well, i understand your concern ;)
