minimised test:

struct A
{
        void opAssign(A a) {}
}

struct B {
        A a;
        alias a this;
}

void main() {
        A a;
        B b;
        b = a;
}

Error: function assign.B.opAssign (B p) is not callable using 
argument types (A)

This does not work (and need not) because compiler generates 
default function B.opAssign(B) which is really not callable using 
argument types (A).
