Do pure functions solve the "return const" problems?

The order of evaluation is undefined. The result depends on the order
of evaluation. In fact, according to the D docs, it's even possible
for the same function to give different results depending on whether
it's evaluated at compile-time or run-time, if you rely on "dependency
on implementation defined order of evaluation".
