version = Stage1;
version = Stage2;

class A {
  this() { b = new B(); }
  B b;
  alias b this;
}

class B {
}

void fun(A a)
{
  a = null;
  version (Stage1)
    assert(a is null);
}

void main() {
  auto a = new A;
  assert(a.b !is null);
  fun(a);
  assert(a !is null);
  version (Stage2)
    assert(a.b !is null);
}

If you want to nullify an reference to a and assign null to it, instead a's reference to b is nullified.
