A problem found by Pelle Mansson:


import std.range: chain;
void main() {
  const string s = "hello";
  auto r = chain(s, s);
}


Compiled with dmd 2.048:

...\dmd\src\phobos\std\range.d(1162): Error: can only initialize const member
_field_field_0 inside constructor
...\dmd\src\phobos\std\range.d(1162): Error: can only initialize const member
_field_field_1 inside constructor


I think a chain() has to work with const strings too (the items need to be
const if one of the iterables given to chain has const items).
