Bug 18565 – std.regex Captures opAssign returns void since v2.079.0

Before commit 59520969ef73eaf0691972ee00b389e5bbc4c8fb this code used to work: --- import std.regex; void main() { string str; Captures!string match; if (cast(bool)(match = str.matchFirst("a")) || cast(bool)(match = str.matchFirst("b"))) {} } --- and it performed the expected operations. However now the compilation fails with: --- a.d(7): Error: cannot cast expression match.opAssign(matchFirst(str, "a")) of type void to bool a.d(8): Error: cannot cast expression match.opAssign(matchFirst(str, "b")) of type void to bool ---
