This code used to compile until recently:

///////////////////////////
struct S { uint x; }

static const S iid0 = S(0);

class C
{
    static const S iid1 = S(1);
};

const S IID0 = iid0;   // works
const S IID1 = C.iid1; // Line 11: fails
////////////////////////////

current git head now reports:

test.d(7): Error: cannot evaluate S(1) at compile time. Circular reference?
test.d(11):        while evaluating iid1.init

I guess this is related to changes regarding const class members. IIRC the code
should still work if an initializer exists.

As a side note, I think the error message should not report "cannot evaluate
S(1)", but "cannot evaluate iid1".
