In this case, the compiler does give a message.

Mixing constructors and static opCall makes a struct hard to reason about and
also resulted in some arbitrary behavior by the compiler. I.e. this change came
about because of fixing other bugzilla issues.

I'm going to mark it as wontfix because it is an intended change.

I apologize for the breaking of the existing code, and for not handling this
behavior change better.
