The code below causes the compiler to go into an infinite loop, continuously
allocating memory until it crashes:

struct Test
{
    struct opDispatch(string dummy)
    { enum opDispatch = 1; }
}
auto temp = Test().foo!(int)();


Please *do* allow generics to work inside opDispatch (do not just remove the
feature), as it allows for some very neat tricks (like static "late" binding)
to be done.
