This needs to be marked with const:

struct Foo
{
    bool opIn_r(T)(T t) const {return false;}
}

what's the rationale ? what's guaranteed by the qualifier that's not already true without const ?

`const` just means the function won't mutate the object. `const` functions can be safely called on mutable, const and immutable objects. Non-`const` functions can only be called on mutable objects.

Thx for the explanations. By the way I knew that when const is applied to the return type it has to be surrounded between parens but so far I've never encountered the other case...And now I also remember why this attribte should rather be put at the right of the function declaration.
