Before I even read your code, I was pretty sure the error :)
LOL. Same here. It seems like almost everyone makes this
mistake unless they caught the information first by doing
something like reading the spec carefully or reading TDPL. And
if you always treat your types as if nothing else can access
their private members and don't need the equivalent of a C++
friend function, odds are, that you'll never notice...

FWIW this confusion found it's way into Phobos as the unittest
was in the same module:
