In C# 'const' means a value needs to be known at compile time. Then
the field is saved as a literal, and when it is referenced, also the
literal value is used.

In Nemerle when you have an immutable field value of which is known at
compile time, the compiler makes it a literal, but you have no way of
forcing it.
