I'm trying to find a way to declare a block of code `nothrow:` when compiling with -betterC, but not `nothrow` when not compiling with -betterC.

The solution is needed for this PR: https://github.com/dlang/druntime/pull/2184/files#r188627707

Attempt #1
----------
void test() { }

version(D_BetterC)
{
    nothrow:
}

extern(C) void main()
{
test(); // This should throw an error in -betterC because `main` is
              // `nothrow` but `test` isn't. It doesn't work
}

Attempt #2
----------
version(D_BetterC)
{
    enum isNoThrow = true;
}
else
{
    enum isNoThrow = false;
}

void test() { }

static if (isNoThrow)
{
    nothrow:
}

extern(C) void main()
{
test(); // This should throw an error in -betterC because `main` is
              // `nothrow` but `test` isn't. It doesn't work
}

Attempt #3
----------
version(D_BetterC)
{
    enum nothrowValue = "nothrow:";
}
else
{
    enum nothrowValue = "";
}

void test() { }

mixin(nothrowValue);

extern(C) void main()
{
test(); // This should throw an error in -betterC because `main` is
              // `nothrow` but `test` isn't. It doesn't work
}


Given that the PR above is for object.d, I can't turn the entire object.d source file into a string and conditionally mix that in. Does anyone have a solution to this?

Thanks,
Mike
