import std.bigint: BigInt;
void main() {
    auto p = new BigInt[1];
    p[0] = BigInt(1); // OK
    p[0] = 1;         // OK
    p ~= BigInt(1);   // OK
    p ~= 1;           // Error
}

This is assignment, so it works.

>    p ~= 1;           // Error

This would be implicit construction of a BigInt from an int.

That makes this an enhancement request for implicit construction on append.
