          Issue ID: 24133
           Summary: printf format checking of %n allows writing to const
                    pointers
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal

Consider:
---
pragma(printf) extern (C) int printf(const(char)* fmt, ...);

void test(int* p, const int* pc)
{
    printf("%n\n",  p); // compiles correctly without error
    printf("%n\n", pc); // should not compile as p points to const
}
