           Summary: two errors meaning the same thing from assert(false, 1)

     83     {
     84         assert(false, 1);
     85     }
     86     catch (AssertError e)
     87     {
     88         writefln("message", e.message);
     89     }

assert-test.d:84: cannot implicitly convert expression (1) of type int to
char[]
assert-test.d:84: cannot cast int to char[]

Interestingly, a similar test only produces a single warning:

     91     int test7func() { return 1; }
     92     try
     93     {
     94         assert(false, test7func());
     95         writefln("test 7 failed -- it didn't throw when it should
have");
     96     }
     97     catch (AssertError e)
     98     {
     99         //writefln("test 7 assert msg: %s", e.message);
    100     }

assert-test.d:94: cannot implicitly convert expression ((test7func)()) of type
int to char[]
