Regarding this, is this supposed to work?

---
import std.stdio;

class Foo {
   int bar() {
     return 1;
   }

   int foo(int x = bar()) {
     return x;
   }
}

void main() {
   new Foo().foo();
}

I get:

coco.d(8): Error: need 'this' to access member bar

But there is a 'this' in that place (it's not a static function).

Should I file this as a bug?
