inout(char)[] todstr(inout(char)* cstr) pure nothrow
{
    return cstr ? cstr[0 .. std.c.string.strlen(cstr)] : cstr[0 .. 0];
}

struct Data
{
    char buffer[256] = void;
    @property const(char)[] filename() const pure nothrow    { return
todstr(buffer.ptr); }
}

struct MyThing
{
    private this(in Data* p)
    {
        filename = p.filename; // *** Uh oh! assigned a const(char)[] @property
to a string! ***
    }

    string filename;
}

The const(char)[] is on the stack, program crashes soon after the assignment.
