Apologies if this is a duplicate, I couldn't see anything *obvious*.

I'm sure this is invalid code, but I got on to doing this (don't ask):

---
module segfault;

import std.stdio;

void main()
{
    foreach (line; cast(string) stdin.byLine) {}
}
---

Which leads to:

---
$ dmd segfault
Segmentation fault
---

Needless to say, no object or executable file is produced.

Reduced test case also segfaults on D1, even ancient ones like DMD0.175.

struct Bug3775 {
  static int byLine()()    { return 1;   }
}

static assert( cast(int) Bug3775.byLine);

Somehow, in DotIdExp::semantic, it has no type.

ROOT CAUSE: This is an interaction between IFTI and property syntax.

PATCH: At the end of CastExp::semantic, make sure that the function has a type.

=====
Some similar cases cause the compiler to do strange things (see below), so I'm
not completely satisfied with the patch. But let's just fix the segfault.

struct Bug3775 {
  static int byLine()()    { return 1;   }
}
void main(){ auto xxx = Bug3775.byLine; } // accepted; xxx is an int.
void main(){ int xxx = Bug3775.byLine; } // rejected: (Bug3775).byLine() has no
value
