I think this is a bug of iota() (or a problem in core.memory.GC.malloc):


import std.range: iota;
import std.array: array;
void main() {
    auto a = array(iota(1L));
}



DMD gives:

...\std\array.d(243): Error: function core.memory.GC.malloc (uint sz, uint ba =
cast(uint)0) is not callable using argument types (ulong,BlkAttr)
...\std\array.d(243): Error: cannot implicitly convert expression (_param_0 *
8LU) of type ulong to uint
...\std\array.d(231): Error: cannot implicitly convert expression (_param_0) of
type ulong to uint
