Implicit conversion with help of alias this doesn't work if the aliased symbol
is a property (or just nullary) function.  The following code doesn't compile:
--------------------
void main()
{
    S s;
    int[] conv = s; // (4)
}
struct S
{
    @property int[] get() { return [1,2,3]; }
    alias get this;
}
--------------------
% dmd -o- -c test.d
test.d(4): Error: cannot implicitly convert expression (s) of type S to int[]
--------------------
The repro code compiles fine if 'get' is a variable.
