Hi Rusters,

I'm very new to Rust, so I'd like you to check if this is really a compiler
bug or not.

fn main() {
    let s1 = &[0i];
    {
        let s2 = &[0i];
        let s3 = if true { s1 } else { s2 };
    };
}

<anon>:7     };
         ...

<anon>:7     };

Seems like s1 and s2 are inferred as &[int, ..1] and when I manually type
them as &[int], it successfully compiles.

fn main() {
    let s1: &[int] = &[0i];
    {
        let s2: &[int] = &[0i];
        let s3 = if true { s1 } else { s2 };
    };
}

Putting s1 and s2 into a single block also satisfies the compiler.

fn main() {
    let s1 = &[0i];

    let s2 = &[0i];
    let s3 = if true { s1 } else { s2 };
}

I came from C++ and I think the way I take reference of a fixed vector
literal is correct.

I was originally trying to fix this line which doesn't compile with the
nightly build of Rust:
https://github.com/servo/rust-url/blob/master/src/form_urlencoded.rs#L55

No similar issue is filed here:
