One solution to this issue would be to have an unconstrained temple that
contains nothing but prgam(msg,"...") inside static ifs. That way failing
the constraint produces a nice message and then, because the template has
nothing it it, using it for almost anything will generate an error and block
compilation.
I will try this solution, thank you. But cputs will be useful regardless. You
can usually find a twisted way to solve most problems, but keeping pragms(msg)
in D is not good, it's a temporary solution at best. One of the 'temporary
solutions' in D that risks to stick around forever, I fear.

pragma(msg) was NOT intended for metaprogramming. It's an accident that
it works at all for the things people are using it for.
