Let T be a type and n a size_t constant, then T[n].init is the same as T.init.

This causes the program code

---
    {
        int[5] x;

        if (x == x.init) { /* ... */ }
    }
---

to be rejected with the compiler error message "Error: incompatible types for
((x) == (0)): 'int[5u]' and 'int'", whereas

---
    static assert(x.init == x[0].init);
---

passes successfully.
