           Summary: Code inside 'foreach' cannot modify variable out of
                    its scope in a template function.

The following program should compile:

pure bool foo(R=int)(string x) {
  bool result = false;
  foreach (dchar d; x)
    result = true;
  return result;
}

void main () {
  foo("hi");
}

But as of v2.052 it raises the errors:

x.d(4): Error: pure nested function '__foreachbody3' cannot access mutable data
'result'
x.d(9): Error: template instance x.foo!(int) error instantiating

If the template parameter (R=int) were removed, the program compiles
successfully. (I think this is related to Issue 3316).
