           Summary: Out parameter with default value as null compiling
                    unit test fails.
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Mac OS X
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD
        AssignedTo: nobody puremagic.com
        ReportedBy: doob me.com



The following code fails to compile:

void isEmail (out void* v = null) {}

unittest
{
    isEmail;
}

With the error message:

test.d(1): Error: null is not an lvalue

This only happens when I compile with -unittest. The parameter has to be an out
parameter, a default parameter and the default value has to be null. The type
of the parameter doesn't matter as long as "null" is a valid value for the
type.

If the parameter is "ref" the same error occurs.
