import std.variant: Algebraic, This;
import std.typecons: Tuple;
alias Foo = Algebraic!(int, Tuple!(This[]));
void main() {
    auto f = Foo(0);
}


DMD 2.063alpha gives:

...\dmd2\src\phobos\std\format.d(1821): Error: static assert
(isInputRange!(This[])) is false
...\dmd2\src\phobos\std\format.d(2279):        instantiated from here:
formatValue!(Appender!(string), This[], char)
...\dmd2\src\phobos\std\typecons.d(551):        instantiated from here:
formatElement!(Appender!(string), This[], char)
temp.d(3):        instantiated from here: Tuple!(This[])

I'm on the road now but a quick test suggests that simply providing an empty definition for This fixes the problem:

    struct This {}

Can someone give it a shot?
