          Issue ID: 15619
           Summary: [REG 2.068]
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: x86_64
                OS: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Severity: regression
          Priority: P1
         Component: dmd
          Assignee: nobody puremagic.com
          Reporter: aliloko gmail.com

To reproduce, build with:

dmd -m64 -O testcase.d

What is expected:

    Output array should be filled with ones.

    [1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1]

What we get:

    Output array is filled with zeros.

    [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]

Ways to work-around the bug:
 - building for 32-bit
 - removing -O switch
 - removing the asserts
 - replace 16 by 15 as thenumber of elements
 - add a float unused field to ExpSmoother


I've tested against several DMD versions:
- 2.067.1 => works
- 2.068.1 => doesn't work
- 2.069.0 => doesn't work
- 2.070.0 => doesn't work
