Yes. With dirEntries, you have to tell it the iteration type. It could be
either a DirEntry or a string. As such, it fails the template constraint for
array. It would probably be possible to extend array to work with it (with you
giving it the iteration type as a template argument), but array would have to
be reworked a bit for that to work.
