Yeah. Looks like it just traverse params's AST and search for
exactly match with ReturnType.

The code with replaced (void, int) with (class A, class B : A)
behaves the same way as original:

import std.stdio;

class A
{
    int i;
}

class B : A
{
}

struct S
{
    A a;

    auto f() pure @safe
    {
        B b = new B;
        a = b;
        return b;
    }
}

void main() @safe
{
    S s;
    immutable a = s.f();
    A b = s.a;
    writeln(a.i);
    b.i = 1;
    writeln(a.i);
}
