Not sure if this should compile. n is a run-time value. It just
happens that it can be CTFE'd. A more problematic case:
---
void main()
{
immutable n = __ctfe ? 1 : 2;
int[n] a;
assert(a.length == n); // fails, wat
}
ie, seeing the declaration 'int[n] a;' one should not assume
a.length is same as 'n' at runtime. I would rather prefer
getting a compilation error that n is not known at compile time
and hence array declaration failed.
If this is eligible for a bugzilla, it is okay. Otherwise, I am
very disappointed.
