I asked for that fix, but Walter closed down that request in
Bugzilla. I still think he was wrong.
I now open a smaller request that can't fix the problem fully:

Well I think the error message you propose isn't possible as it
would cause many problems in generic code.
const applied to the rturn type should be the way to go. It is
basically what everybody except at first when looking at the
code. But it is probably too late to change that.
