This is a correct error message:

class Foo {
    final int[5] bar;
    this() {}
}
void main() {}


temp.d(2): Error: variable temp.Foo.bar final cannot be applied to variable,
perhaps you meant const?



This is wrong:

class Foo {
    const int[5] bar;
    this() {}
}
void main() {}


DMD 2.061alpha:

temp.d(3): Error: constructor temp.Foo.this missing initializer for final field
bar

I suggest to replace it with something like:

temp.d(3): Error: constructor temp.Foo.this missing initializer for const field
bar
