Hi!

I think it would be useful to be able to alias the linkage identifiers.

I want to do

version (Win32) {
  alias Windows lnkmod;
}
version (linux) {
  alias C lnkmod;
}

extern (lnkmod) {

  ...
  ...
  ...

}

As it is now, I need to put the whole extern block inside a version block, thus doubling up the set of declarations. If I'ver overlooked some other solution, please mention it :)

I see your point. I'll have to think about it!

I'd use #define and pass it through a C preprocessor -- hee hee hee!!
