I think the main problem is that dmd treats string literal as lvalue.
Lvalue can appear on left hand side of assignment, so string literal now
asignable.

Patch comment #7 fixes this behavior, and this change also refuse string
literal on ref parameter as a side effect.

It seems to me that it is correct refusing string literal on ref parameter.
So this change breaks existing code.

(If D specification treats string literal specially, my think is mistaken.
But it might be not.)
