           Summary: Cannot create std.algorithm.Array of structs with

Test case:

-------------------
import std.container;
struct S {
    ~this() {}
}
alias Array!S A;
void main() {}
-------------------
/usr/include/phobos/std/container.d(1506): Error: function
std.container.Array!(S).Array.clear () is not callable using argument types (S)
/usr/include/phobos/std/container.d(1506): Error: function
std.container.Array!(S).Array.clear () is not callable using argument types (S)
/usr/include/phobos/std/container.d(1506): Error: this for clear needs to be
type Array not type Payload
/usr/include/phobos/std/container.d(1506): Error: expected 0 arguments, not 1
for non-variadic function type void()
/usr/include/phobos/std/container.d(1506): Error: cannot pass types that need
destruction as variadic arguments
-------------------

Line 1506 of std.container calls the method 'clear()' on a variable 'e', which
I think it should call the global function '.clear()' (this again shows the
name 'clear()' is bad.)

The fix is to add back the missing dot:

-------------------------------------------------
diff --git a/std/container.d b/std/container.d
index 94f6ef6..df89c2f 100755
--- a/std/container.d
+++ b/std/container.d

                     {

                 }
                 _payload = _payload.ptr[0 .. newLength];
-------------------------------------------------


Because of this bug (and issue 5792), an Array of Array cannot be created.
