I believe that you are correct and that the array is getting set twice.

I confess that it's entirely irrational on my part given that D is smart enough 
that a post-increment where the temporary is not used should be just as efficient 
as a pre-increment (even in the face of operator overloading - unlike C++), but 
it always makes me cringe to see post-increments where a pre-increment would 
do...
