...it seems natural that to!MyEnumType(42) should work as well.
But currently it gives error:
template instance std.conv.to!(MyEnumType).to!(

Like the previous fellow said, it's not an error.
To me that line of code says: "let's assign to MyEnumType
variable y some value that's not valid (as type MyEnumType
