digitalmars.D.learn - What's wrong with this enum?

// Works
enum : int[string]

    Circle = ["CoolCircle":50]

//  Error: non-constant expression ["CoolCircle":50]
enum shapes : int[string]

    Circle = ["CoolCircle":50]
}

I can't find this in bugzilla.

I believe it is because shapes.Circle["CoolCircle"] = 25; perhaps a a defining: enmu shapes : const(int[string]) would work? Anyway with DMD 2.052 I'm not getting your error.

Nope. enumtwobug.d(10): Error: non-constant expression ["CoolCircle":cast(const(int))50]
 Anyway with DMD 2.052 I'm not getting your error.
What OS are you running? I'm running 2.052 and getting the error on Windows. Maybe it's an OS-specific bug.
