Which gets me to thinking: will const parameters be implicitly passed by referance?  Given 
something like (contrived):

<code>
import std.stdio;

void main () {
   int i = 0;

   void inc () { ++i; }

   void foo (const int x) {
     write(x);
     inc();
     write(x);
   }

   foo(i);
}
</code>

Should I expect to see it output 01 or 00?
