--- Comment #43 from Nick Treleaven <nick at geany.org> ---
kdevel adds detail that `if (arr.ptr)` and `if (arr)` are not the same! The
difference is significant for typeid(T).initializer, which has a null pointer
but non-zero length:

Note that `if (arr !is null)` is equivalent to `if (arr)`. Those check both the
.ptr and .length fields (i.e. `is null` means exactly the same as `is []`).
