digitalmars.D.bugs - casting int to array causes assertion failure in dmd

Given code causes "Assertion Failure: 'ei' on line 2576 in file 'mtype.c'"
This seems to be the minimum required.

<code>
const char[] B = ['A'];

int main(char[][] arg) {cast(B)1;}
</code>

I am fairly sure I am using dmd 1.02, under WinXP. Havent had a chance to  
check under linux.

(I realise that this code is COMPLETELY wrong, but it shouldn't cause an  
assertion failure, right?)

(btw, what encoding should I use for posts? ASCII, utf-8?)

Right.

Whatever you used for this seems fine to me, but then we're using the same client :) Regan -- Using M2, Opera's revolutionary e-mail client: http://www.opera.com/m2/
