Should this be supported?

Have you considered what this does? Consider a standard [1.0, 2.0]
call:
In essence, it pushes 1.0 and 2.0 onto the stack, then calls a function
to allocate the memory and use the given data.
What will end up happening is the data is copied from the stack to the
heap. It's just in your case, the data copied is garbage. I see
little point in supporting this.

That is an implementation detail.
Oh, I didn't notice that foo was a fixed-sized array, I thought the focus
was on the array literal.
It does make sense that this should be possible.
