--- Comment #1 from Andrei Alexandrescu <andrei@erdani.com> ---
There is a workaround to this:

struct R {
    int[] arr;

    alias get this;

    R get(this This)()
    {
        return R.init;
    }

    R get(this This)() const
    {
        return R.init;
    }
}

unittest
{
    const(R) b = const(R).init;
}

A better workaround:

struct R {
    int[] arr;

    alias get this;

    This get(this This)()
    {
        return This.init;
    }
}

unittest
{
    const(R) b = const(R).init;
}

I suspect the problem is an infinite recursion during semantic checking.

--- Comment #3 from Simen Kjaeraas <simen.kjaras@gmail.com> ---
Slightly different version where the given workarounds don't work:

struct R(T) {
    // Used 'auto' here, but 'This' or 'R!(const int)' gives same behavior.
    // Marking the method const or immutable likewise has no effect.
    auto get(this This)() {
        return R!(const int).init;
    }
    alias get this;
}
unittest {
    R!int a;
    R!(const int) b = a;
}

Note that the array is no longer needed.
Interestingly, adding pragma(msg, This) inside get() provides no output.

This seems flaky. The example in comment #3 compiles under 2.078.3, but the first example still causes DMD to freeze.

Here's a stack trace - it looks like compare_overload runs into an endless recursion:
