Unless I'm mistaken, this was recently fixed. Are you using 2.062?

Having perfectly perfect constraints is a lot of work and review. 
When we get it wrong, yes, you have to look at source. But 
contrast this with C++, when you *always* have to look at source 
or horrible template errors to find out what the error is. D has 
it good, even when the constraint safety net fails.
