As far as I can tell, this problem has been occurring for a long time.
BTW, you don't need to define it in global space, just:
```d
void main()
{
shared aa = ["abc": "123"];
}
```
I have to ask the old-timers on this forums: looks like the dlang
built-in AA has caused us too many problems, I'm just wondering which
(dict / map) library on https://code.dlang.org/ provides the best
(reliable and convenient) drop-in replacement of the built-in AA?
I started one, but haven't fleshed out all the pieces:
https://code.dlang.org/packages/newaa
This is literally a drop-in replacement for an AA as it uses exactly the
same algorithms and layout. In fact, you can cast it to an equivalent aa
and it works.
I would accept PRs and issues if you want to use it. The hard parts are
done, it just needs API.
