           Summary: No implicit conversion with "alias property this"
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: rejects-valid
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2

Implicit conversion with help of alias this doesn't work if the aliased symbol
is a property (or just nullary) function.  The following code doesn't compile:
--------------------
void main()
{
    S s;
    int[] conv = s; // (4)
}
struct S
{
     property int[] get() { return [1,2,3]; }
    alias get this;
}
--------------------
% dmd -o- -c test.d
test.d(4): Error: cannot implicitly convert expression (s) of type S to int[]
--------------------
The repro code compiles fine if 'get' is a variable.

Created an attachment (id=789)
Patch against dmd r725, fixes implicitConvTo()

implicitConvTo() of TypeStruct and TypeClass don't deal with functions, and
just tests convertion from function type to value type (then fails).  The
attached patch fixes the problem by adding a special check for functions. 
Passed dmd/druntime/phobos tests.
