This program fails to compile

import std.traits;

class C
{
}

void func1(S)(in S str, immutable C a = null)
    if(isSomeString!S)
{
    func2(str, a);
}

void func2(S)(in S str, immutable C a = null)
    if(isSomeString!S)
{
}

void main()
{
    func1("hello world");
    func2("hello world");
}

giving this error:

q.d(10): Error: template q.func2(S) if (isSomeString!(S)) does not match any
function template declaration
q.d(10): Error: template q.func2(S) if (isSomeString!(S)) cannot deduce
template function from argument types
!()(const(immutable(char)[]),immutable(C))
q.d(20): Error: template instance q.func1!(string) error instantiating

Removing the template constraints has no effect. Thus far, anything that I
change immutable C a to anything other than a const C, _does_ compile, but it
fails to compile as long as it's const or immutable. The fact that it's a
default parameter seems to have no effect. If pass it a new C() instead of
null, that has no effect. If I change the func2 call in func1 to func2!S, then
it compiles just fine. But for some reason, when the second class parameter is
there and it's not mutable, the template instantiation fails to determine the
correct type of S for the inner instantiation, and you're forced to tell it.

So, this bug is just plain weird, and it _can_ be gotten around, but it's
_definitely_ a bug.
