This isn't a regression. It gave exactly the same error back in DMD 1.000.

In fact, it's not even a bug: in D1, 'this' for a struct is a pointer to that struct. As you can see with this code:

struct Test1 {
    static assert(is(typeof(this) == Test1)); // FAILS !!!
}

In D2, the 'this' pointer is the struct itself.

If you make this change:

-    alias This* pThis;
+    alias This pThis;

your code will compile.
