Hi,


(http://github.com/ldc-developers/ldc/pull/275), I transitively 
had to fix other things related to static initialization of 
structs and arrays. Unfortunately, I hit a wall today when I 
thought I just had it. Consider:

struct S { int array[4]; }

void main()
{
     S local = S(67); // local.array = [67, 67, 67, 67]
     static S static_ = S(67); // static_.array = [67, 0, 0, 0]
     assert(local == static_);
}

This passes in my current ldc commit, but fails for the current 
releases of dmd and ldc2, with values as commented. I could have 
lived with a bug and filed a bug report 
http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=9425 , but was 
baffled again when the ldc build test suite failed at 
http://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/blob/e7eff4deef0fb5ec9a89cee4716785832fc41fb9/test/runn
ble/test42.d#L3223. 
How should I proceed? Just try to unfix it as expected in that 
test case, wait for a fix or try another issue instead?

You might want to send a message to dmd-internals, asking for 
clarification on the intended behavior and noting that the issue 
blocks LDC development.

This way, you'll hopefully get an answer quicker than by just 
hoping that the right people stumble over the issue soon.
