Overlapping array copy is allowed (and works fine for now) during CTFE:
---
static assert({
    auto a = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4];
    a[0 .. 4] = a[1 .. 5];
    assert(a == [1, 2, 3, 4, 4]);

    a = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4];
    a[1 .. 5] = a[0 .. 4];
    assert(a == [0, 0, 1, 2, 3]);
    return 1;
}());
---

But it is inconsistent with runtime behaviour when exception is thrown in such
case. I'd say it should be disallowed in CTFE too.
