Wait, so when you say const(mutable(T)[]), you mean head-const?  That is, the 
pointer and length are const, but the data can be changed?

Because when you say const(...), ... is supposed to be transitive const.  The 
terminology you are using is confusing to me.

Obviously your patch is good, since it fixes the bugs, but I'm not sure I 
understand the explanation.
