That's actually only at compile time if it is in static scope, if 
it inside a function, it is a runtime array.

But anyway..

this works at runtime inside a function, but does not work at 
compile time at all, in any version of D (as of right now); the 
compile-time AA to static data was never implemented.

You could possibly do a custom implementation though.
