D associative arrays are a dynamic runtime feature, thus can't be 
initialized without runtime expressions. :(

This ended up failing too:

struct slot_t { char* key; long value; };

slot_t bogus[3] = {
         { "foo", 5L },
         { "bar", 10L },
         { "baz", 2000L }
};

import std.stdio;

void main() {
         bogus.map.writeln();
}
