I file the bug report:

import std.stdio;

class A {
     void print() { writefln("a"); }
}

int main() {
     A[1] a = new A[1]; a[0].print();
     A[]  b = new A[1]; b[0].print();
     A*   c = a;        c.print();
     A*   d = b;        d.print();
     return 0;
}

I expected both the c and d assignments to fail with a type mismatch?

Later,
Brad

I get:
   main.d(10): Error: cannot implicitly convert expression (a) of type 
A[1] to A*
   main.d(11): Error: cannot implicitly convert expression (b) of type 
A[] to A*
