           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW

cat << EOF | dmd -c -o- -run -
void main()
{
    class F
    {
        override string toString() inout  safe
        {
            return "Foo";
        }
    }
}

I'm aware that the current overloading rules don't really take `inout` into
account, but defining all three overloads is really annoying.
