That should have been noted in the original thread. shared static this 
is required to initialize static immutables. Simple reason -- a static 
immutable is shared between all threads, so you shouldn't be 
initializing shared static data in every thread that gets created.

Right, CFTE cannot access static immutable AA that are initialized at 
runtime.

But you can access the enum.

e.g. (yes it's horrid):

enum sorted = Qwezzz.qazMap.keys.sort();

It would be really cool to make AA's at CTFE change into runtime AAs 
when used at runtime, and be accessible as compile-time AAs otherwise.
