Hi,
When I try to define an Enum with an umlaut like ä
	
enum test2 {
	l,
	ä
	}
I get  Error: basic type expected, not "\u00e4"
and     Error: type only allowed if anonymous enum and no enum type

is there any workaround for this ?

For me this is a feature, not a bug.

Why that? D is supposed to support unicode identifiers, and in this case it cleary does not?

It's a bug. "ä" is a valid identifier.

.... Strange this bug seems to manifest itself only in some situations
enum ä {ä = "ä"}
does not work in dpaste but suddenly it works on my local enviorment (Windows-Mono-d,dmd 2.064.2)

it seems to have something todo with the abscence of a BOM header ...
