Seems unrelated to sum. The same issue happens with any function called UFCS,
without parens. It also happens regardless of input type. For example:

//----
size_t foo(int) {return 1;}
size_t bar() {return 1;}

void main() {
    enum int a = 0;

    enum i = 5.foo; //OK!
    enum j = a.foo; //OK!
    enum k = bar;   //OK!

    int[5.foo] arr1; //OK!
    int[a.foo] arr2; //NOPE
    int[bar  ] arr3; //NOPE
}
//----

The issue appears to simply be that parentless calls in a array-length context
doesn't work? Strangely enough, it works with literals though.

Maybe http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=11247
Is related?

Changing name.
