Note that this prevents std.array.appender from being CTFE-able, because it
contains the code:

                _data.arr.ptr[len] = cast(Unqual!T)item;  // <-- error
                _data.arr = _data.arr.ptr[0 .. len + 1];  // (OK)

Currently, this could be worked-around by swapping the two statements and use
the standard indexing:

                _data.arr = _data.arr.ptr[0 .. len+1];  // OK
                _data.arr[len] = cast(Unqual!T)item;    // now OK

but I think the more proper solution is to fix this bug.
