Scenario is the same if there is struct with postblit and 
const(S) is passed as AA argument. If there is more code 
involved, the situation can be more complicated.

- Does this mean that "no one" or "very few" developers store 
structs with postblits as value types in the standard 
associative array? Maybe I just do things differently than 
others.

This does not imply such situation, simply there is a problem. 
You can workaround by

struct DAssociativeArray(Key, Value)
{
    struct Slot
    {
        Value value;
    }
}

struct RC {
    int i;
    void postblit() { i = -5; }
    this(this) const
    {
        void delegate() dg = &postblit;
        dg();
    }
}

void main()
{
    RC rc1 = RC(5);
    RC rc2 = rc1;
    assert(rc2.i is -5);
    DAssociativeArray!(int, const(RC)) goo;
}
