I was thiking the dmd compiler did CTFE without someone ask for this, in the way as I've mentioned, checking for constant arguments + function's purity and if all this is true, it did the CTFE rather than generate code to compute it at run-time. In the case of it did happen, I just wanted to know. It was my misunderstsooding how it does works in dmd.
A convenient way to force ctfe is "eval": http://dlang.org/function.html (search for "eval!") Though you'd change "const" for "enum". Unfortunately, it's not in Phobos, but it should be! https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11811
