I ran across this in DLI 0.1.1, I have no clue whether it's a DLI or DMD
bug.

The following code will crash dli with the message
"machine-i386.cpp(1885): struct, dumping core..."

struct foo {}
foo[100] bar;
int main() {
        return 0;
}

However, if I make 'bar' a dynamic array and allocate it in main with
"bar = new foo[100];" then it works fine.

It was my fault, fixed now.  Walter's internal API for struct 
initialisers is... uh... inconsistent.
