How about "associative array literal" then? Regardless of what you call
it I shouldn't get an assertion failure.
True. It's been fixed in dmd2 though, you get:
Error: Integer constant expression expected instead of ""
When it's auto the compiler thinks you are doing static initialisation
of a flat array, not an AA. You have to do what Ellery said.
But the compiler (D2) accepts nested aa literals remaining anonymous:
writeln(["a" : ["b" : "c"]]); // --> "a:b:c"
(where "auto aa = ..." fails)

yeah, but dmd's parser was written by hand so it's not surprising there
are inconsistency's with what works where.
I finally found the bit where it describes associative array literals
and they look identical to initialising a flat array, so god only knows
which one gets picked when. It would be better if they where made different.
