void delegate() test(Object[] objs...) {
        return {
                foreach(obj; objs)
                        assert(obj);
        };
}

void delegate() foo() {
        return test(new Object, new Object);
}

void main() {
        auto ok = test(new Object, new Object);
        ok(); // no problem

        auto it = foo(); // but if we build the array elsewhere
        it(); // this triggers a failure
}

My guess is the arguments are on the enclosing stack, so the ok() call is fine,
because the test call is still there.

But, the foo call leaves that [new Object, new Object] on the stack, which is
now potentially invalid.


Other local variables are copied in this situation for a closure, but it looks
like the variadic arg case was overlooked.



Marked as minor because it is very easy to work around and this combination of
features is super rare anyway.
