The 'bug' is that you can have mutable array manifest constant.  The code
expands to:

bringToFront([1, 2, 3, 4][0 .. $-1], [1, 2, 3, 4][$-1 .. $]);

which is valid, because an array literal is a valid range.

The mutable manifest constant and implicit dup, are unfortunately working as
designed.

See issue 9953.
