As I just pointed out in Ali's bug report [1], this is correct, as
true ? stt = "AA" : stt = "BB"
means
(true ? (stt = "AA") : stt) = "BB",
in accordance to D's grammar [2]:
AssignExpression:
ConditionalExpression
ConditionalExpression = AssignExpression

We should probably require explicit parentheses here. Relying on
this behaviour is just asking for trouble anyway, as evidenced by
the amount of confusion in this thread.
