In the following code:

   auto str = cast(wchar[])("123456"c);
   writefln(typeid(typeof(str)));

the (original) string literal will be of type wchar[$] and not char[$], 
as the cast takes precedence over the string decorator.

How is that a bug? The type of the right side is wchar[].

auto x = cast(float)4;

x is float, not int, same thing above.
