For some reason this code doesn't work...

It'll give you " Error: function app.test2 (const(char)**
test2) is not callable using argument types
(immutable(char)**)", which makes no sense as if a function
requests a constant variable, immutable should suffice.
What's even weirder (although it is what should happen), if
you remove one of the pointers, it compiles fine.
module app;
void main() {
immutable char var = 'a';
test(&var);
}
void test(immutable(char)* param) {
test2(param);
}
void test2(const(char)* test2) {
}
Is this a bug? I'm using DMD.
Looks like a bug to me.
Alright, filing it.
