Feels pretty silly, but I can't compile this:


import std.random;
auto i = uniform(0, 10);


DMD spits this:

/usr/include/dmd/phobos/std/random.d(1188): Error: static variable initialized cannot be read at compile time /usr/include/dmd/phobos/std/random.d(1231): called from here: rndGen() /usr/include/dmd/phobos/std/random.d(1231): called from here: uniform(a, b, rndGen())

Perhaps I'm missing something obvious?
dmd 2.067.1, openSUSE 13.2 x64

void main() {
        import std.random;
        auto i = uniform(0, 10);
}

Not so simple, unfortunately.
Actual code:


import std.random;

struct Mystruct {
    auto id = uniform(0, 10);
}

void main() {
    // wahtever
}


..and no luck.
