explain.

struct Foo { int x, y; }

class Bar
{
    Foo[] foos = [Foo(1, 2)];

    void swap(const(Foo) f)
    {
        foos[0].x = f.y;
        foos[0].y = f.x;
    }
}

void quux(Bar bar, const(Foo) foo)
{
    bar.swap(foo);
}

Are the foo parameters allowed to be passed by ref in both these 
functions? I see no reason why not from your criteria, but doing 
so changes the program.
