No, a report is probably needed. There are lots of bugs with the new
const and ref features in D2. Many have been reported, but there are
still many more to be discovered. Returning refs in particular is
very new, so I would expect bugs a plenty with that, though I think
few have been reported so far. I don't keep up with the bugs
newsgroup these days, though. Certainly try to search for it in the
bug db before filing a new report, though. D's bugzilla is here:
