Description AdamB 2010-09-14 22:47:30 UTC 
Running dmd v2.048 the compiler seems to crash on code like this:

  alias ubyte foo;
  alias const foo * const_fooP;

  void main()
  {
  }

The error is:

dmd: mtype.c:875: void Type::check(): Assertion `tn->mod & 4 || tn->mod & 1' failed.
Aborted


I'm new to D so this might be invalid syntax but it shouldn't crash the compiler.

Yes. Thanks for the excellent reduced test case.
