The following code doesn't compile (in dmd 2.050 and 1.065), but I think it
should.

class Factory
{
    static Exception create(T)(T x)
    {
        return new Exception("whatever");
    }
}

void main()
{
    throw Factory.create(123);
}

Error message is the following:

> test.d(11): Error: type Factory is not an expression

Either one of the changes dissolves the compilation failure:

- Changing the method declaration into a non-template
    create(int x)
- Decomposing the throw statement as
    auto e = Factory.create(123); throw e;

The combination of throw+static+template seems causing a trouble.
