Description bearophile_hugs 2010-12-01 12:52:21 UTC 
pure void foo(T...)(T args) {
    auto x = args[1 .. $];
}
void main() {
    foo(1, 2);
}


DMD 2.050 shows:
test.d(2): Error: pure function 'foo' cannot access mutable static data '__dollar'
test.d(5): Error: template instance test.foo!(int,int) error instantiating

If I remove "pure" the error vanishes.

Apparently fixed.
