It makes sense. Seems to be another compiler bug, but I have
no good overview of which (might even be a new one).
This compiles and runs:

class A(T)
{
     version(broken)
     {
         class B
         {
             // Explicitly state which t we're talking about.
             T blah() { return this.outer.t; }
         }
     }

     T t;
}

mixin A!(int);

int main()
{
     A!(int) a = new A!(int)();
     return 0;
}
