After a recent discussion on this list about tail-const class
references, it became rather clear that someone interested would have
to implement the thing if we were to have it. So I did it. See
enhancement request 5325 for an explanation and a patch.

I think it's great that you're trying this out. I failed at getting
tail const to work. I don't think it can work, but I might be wrong.
Is there something I can do to convince you this patch works? Because
it does. There is still some rough edges for which I wasn't sure what
was the best solution -- head-modifiers not reflected in TypeInfo or
with is(T == const) -- but they're relatively minor and easy to fix
once we know what we want.
By the way, I pushed this into a separate branch in my dmd-objc git
repository (this branch does not include the Objective-C-related
changes). So you can get the source with the patch pre-applied this way:
git clone http://git.michelf.com/dmd-objc/
cd dmd-objc
git checkout objconst
