Ok, a reply in there mentioned that's not actually a bug. But, the changelog
*really* should state prominently under "changed features" that:
1. Struct literals are no longer lvalues.
and
2. Things like opCmp/opEquals/etc in a struct now need an overload with
non-const non-ref params in order to continue working with struct literals.
Maybe I'm biased since I ran head-first into it, but I'm betting that'll
confuse the crap out of many people if it's not clearly mentioned under
"changed features".
So I've renamed the issue:
[2.059 Beta] Changelog should clearly mention struct literal/opCmp/opEquals
changes
