That is an assertion; I can dqually assert that the current over-strict typechecking is a bug, because it doesn't conform to the semandics of 'comples_new'. > Also, it's possible that someone is relying on it throwing for > non-complex values. No already working, non-contrived code would break, becuase float is perfectly-promotable to complex.
