The problem is that the code for AA consists of runtime hooks.
So in practice even if your keys and values are available the 
compiler doesn't know how to build it and use it.

At some point what could be done is a kind of serialization at 
compile time and facilities for quick deser at runtime from the 
data segment but that doesn't change the fact that they could 
still not be used for CTFE or template metaprog.
