Re-compiling existing code with version 2.066 generates a lot
of errors complaining about implicit conversion to const.
Typical is this call (inside a struct with properties 1 & 2):
z.sign = x.sign ^ y.sign;
Error: None of the overloads of 'sign' are callable using
argument types bool (const), candidates are:
1) @property
@safe
bool sign() const
{
return signed;
}
2) @property
@safe
bool sign(in bool value)
{
signed = value;
return signed;
}
What changed? It ran okay with early beta versions, but not
with the release.

Could you provide a short, but complete program that reproduces
the issue? With this:
//----
struct S
{
bool signed;
@property
@safe
bool sign() const
{
return signed;
}
@property
@safe
bool sign(in bool value)
{
signed = value;
return signed;
}
}
void main(string[] args)
{
S s;
s.sign = s.sign ^ s.sign;
}
//----
It works for me with both 2.065.0 and 2.066.0.
What is the type of "signed" ? Is it something other than bool,
by any chance?
