Currently this code gets rejected:
const int[] a = [1];
void main() pure {
auto y = a[0];

test2.d(3,14): Error: pure function 'D main' cannot access
mutable static data 'a'
test2.d(3,14): Error: pure function 'D main' cannot access
mutable static data 'a'
But is this a good idea? Isn't it better to accept it?
