Description Trass3r 2011-08-14 11:54:17 UTC 
struct Blub
{
	alias const(void*) T;

	~this() {}
	invariant() {}
}

$ dmd -c wrapper.d 
DMD v2.054 DEBUG
Error: __result = this is not mutable
Error: __result = this is not an lvalue

Somehwat related to bug 5690 but this one doesn't show an error location and there is no "real" const member, just an alias.

I think this is bug 3273, and it is already fixed in master.
Your sample code pass compile with trunk dmd.
