           Summary: DMD allows "dereferencing" arrays as if it were a
                    pointer to first element
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD
        AssignedTo: nobody puremagic.com

import std.stdio;
void main()
{
    string foo = "foo";
    int[] bar = [ 42 ];

    writeln(*foo, *bar); // prints "f42"
}

I don't think this is intended and should be disallowed.
