No, not a bug.
I suspect you want this?
void incx(Args..., T)(ref T t);
This doesn't seem to work, because:
test.d(3): Error: template `test.incx(Args..., T)(ref T t)`
template tuple parameter must be last one
Are you sure it's not a bug? It would be very un-intuitive
otherwise, no?
Considering that the declaration is legal, and that the template
parameter deduction works when Args.length == 0, but stops
working when Args.length > 0.
There seems to be no way around it, except manually specifying
the type, which is not only annoying.
I was trying to use UFCS to emulate a method on a family of
structs, but this makes it impossible :(
