Where is opDot described in the D spec?

.. OK I found this thread, it's been depreciated

No answer on opStar though.

In any event, the problem you are experiencing could be related 
to the broken template system. We've been having a trouble 
defining templates of structures that are perfectly legit and 
work fine when the type is specified in non-templated form.

Try the same code in non-template form to see if it works or not.
