In this case, T is ubyte[256], which is a static array type. it's completely counterintuitive. either `new ubyte[256];` should be disallowed, or `new ubyte[256][256];` should work as i expect it to work. it's the same thing as with const methods: `const A foo ()`. yes, 'const' is a method attribute here, but it's counterintuitive.
