--- Comment #3 from Walter Bright <bugzilla at digitalmars.com> ---
This is a bit of a hopeless circular tangle. 'scope' is ignored if the type has
no pointers. So S is checked for pointers. S.a is of type S2, which then must
be checked for pointers. Checking S2 for pointers means evaluating each member
to see if it is a field, which gets us back to looking at the 'scope'.

Not sure if this is reasonably fixable.
