Perfect, thank you!

I think I've seen something like this, probably using 'static 
if', but can't find it now. What I'm really trying to do is test 
for existence of a specific enhancement in phobos, if it's 
present, use it, otherwise don't. Testing for a particular phobos 
release number seems the obvious thing to do.
