Of course it does. It's been there for a long as I can remember. In fact, according to the changelog, it's been there since 2007:

http://www.digitalmars.com/d/1.0/changelog.html#new1_011

"Added keywords ref and macro."
"ref now works as a replacement for inout."

This works as expected with DMD 1.072:

void foo (ref int i)
{
    i++;
}

void main ()
{
    int a = 3;
    foo(a);
    assert(a == 4);
}

Yes it does!? It's synonymous with inout (D1 inout, not D2 inout).? Oodles of code uses ref, including Tango, if you removed ref, that needs to be undone.
