lvalue - opIndexAssign - Tango

Hi,
When porting from c++ to D, i encounter this strange discrimination:
1. Built-in AA:
int[int] arr;
arr[123] += 12345;
arr[321]++;
2. Tango HashMap:
auto hm = new HashMap!(int, int)();
hm[123] += 12345; // error not lvalue
hm[123]++; // error
D document says current opIndexAssign does not work as lvalue. But why
can builtin AA can that? How can i copy builtin AA behaviour?
--------------
Forgive my noob, where is the place to ask question, report bug for Tango?
1. I can't compile D code using tango hashmap in debug mode:
import tango.util.container.HashMap;
void main()
{
auto hm = new HashMap!(uint, uint)();
}
> dmd -w -g -debug hello.d // error
2. Compile D code using Tango Regex by GDC emit lots of link errors.
3. Bug in Tango atomicIncrement, atomicDecrement:
int task_done = 0;
atomicIncrement(task_done);
That function is compiled in asm:
lock inc byte ptr[task_done];
Which is wrong. It'll wrap to 0 at 255.
It should be: lock inc dword ptr[task_done];
4. There is no atomicAdd(ref original, int newvalue) family. GCC
equivalence is __syn_fetch_and_add ...
