           Summary: Variadic templates and auto return types don't work
                    together.

It seems that one cannot use both variadic templates tuple parameters and auto
return types in the same template function.  Consider the following functions:

/*If instantiated with any of several types I tried, compile time error: 
Assertion failure: '0' on line 847 in file 'glue.c'*/

auto foo(T...)(T dummyInput) {  
    int i = 1;
    return i;
}

//Works.
int bar(T...)(T dummyInput) {
    int i = 1;
    return i;
}

//Works.
auto baz(T)(T dummyInput) {
    int i = 1;
    return i;
}
