So, should the case b compile or not ? Is the spec too restrictive
here, or is it a bug ?

Apparently it's a WONTFIX mess. The spec should be updated.
Walter&Andrei refused to fix a design bug here.

Source?

IMO, the OP code does not warrant the errors cited.

Well, there's this mess

https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6176

but I don't see anything in there from Walter or Andrei, so I'm not sure
what Bearophile is referring to. Personally though, I wish that case
statements only allowed compile-time constants... :|

Found it by following some references:

Ugh...

at the VERY LEAST, the error message should be fixed, as "can't be read at compile time" is clearly not the issue.
