Could we modify the compiler to allow that? Just for the special
identifiers __LINE__, __FILE__ and similar. It wouldn't be possible to
specify a value for that parameter then.

IIRC Andrei has a bugzilla open for this.

Why? I cannot remember a compiler version where the following did not
work:

import std.stdio;
void fun(A...)(A args, int l = __LINE__){ writeln(args," ",l); }
void main(){ fun(1,2,3); }

I.e. there is absolutely no issue here.

Except that it unfortunately doesn't do what is intended:

import std.stdio;
void fun(A...)(A args, int l = __LINE__){ writeln(args," ",l); }
void main(){ fun(10,11); }

output:
10 11

expected:
1011 3

Oops! Touché! Thanks. While the code indeed works, there actually _is_ an issue here. :o)

(It is even more embarrassing seeing that I have actually built my own implementation of IFTI and it actually matches DMD's behaviour in this case.)
