This doesn't seem to have anything to do with overloading.  As I try it (DMD
1.023 and 2.007 alike, Windows) the code you've posted compiles without error. 
However, if I trying adding this code:

void main() {
    uniformInt(2, 3);
}

then I get

bz1623.d(2): struct bz1623.uniformInt(IntType) is not a function template
bz1623.d(9): struct bz1623.uniformInt(IntType) cannot deduce template function
f
rom argument types (int,int)

Nothing to do with overloading, but that it's a struct template, not a function
template.  If I cut down the example
----------
struct uniformInt(IntType) {
    static uniformInt opCall()(IntType min);
}

void main() {
    uniformInt(42);
}
----------
then I get basically the same errors.

What errors do you get when you try it under Linux?
