Thanks! Two questions about the struct constructors:

1. Why is there the limitation that the constructor list may not be
empty? One problem with that rule is incorrect handling of a single
parameter with a default value:

    struct S
    {
        this(int x = 1)
        {
            writefln("Ctor");
        }
    }

    S s = S();

The constructor is not called. Is such a parameter list considered
empty or non-empty?


2. How do constructiors affect static opCalls?

struct S
{
	this(int x)
	{
	}

	static void opCall(int x, int y)
	{
	}
}

S s;
s(1, 2); 

Error: constructor Test.main.S.this (int x) does not match parameter
types (int,int)


dmd seems to ignore static opCalls completely, if there is a
constructor. Is it intended behavior?
