// *********** dmd V0.111 and dmd V0.110 bug: ************
// If the following array is changed to type 'bit', the
// last 'printf()' statement does not display any number.
// This bug reappears even if the array declaration is
// changed to 'D' style and also if '1' and '0' are
// changed to 'true' and 'false' respectively.
//
// Quickfix: If the array is moved inside the 'main()'
// function, the bug does not occur. Linker problem rather
// than dmd problem?
