That works fine for normal methods, but how about ctors?  I actually ran into
this.

template mixtem()
{ 
        this(char[] t)
        {
                Stdout.formatln(t);
        }
}

class A
{
        mixin mixtem;

        this()
        {
                this("OK"); // same error as the OP
        }
}

Except of course "mixin mixtem M; alias M.this this;" is not legal.  (I also
tried using the weird _ctor but that doesn't work either.)
