The following program does not compile. I assume it should compile.

---
struct BNode { }

class UserObject {
    BNode record;
    alias record this;
    void* context() { return cast(void*)this; }
}
---

$ dlang.dmd -c test.d
test.d(5): Error: cannot cast expression this.record of type BNode to void*
$ dlang.dmd --version
