I'll mull on it over night.
There is no change in behaviour due to stack-allocating the
literal in the static array assignment (or just not emitting it
at all), at least if GDC correctly implements slice <- sarray
assignment. The dynamic array never "sees" the literal at all, as
shown by Timon.
In the general case (i.e. when assigned to dynamic arrays), you
obviously can't stack-allocate literals, but I don't think we
disagree here.
