asserting dmd has a problem?

[Russel Winder via Digitalmars-d-learn]

Clearly I am missing something very, very simple, but…

The following code compiles fine using DMD 2.70.2:

	writeln(play_bin);
	assert(play_bin is null);
	assert(play_bin !is null);
		
with the output:

	null

on executing the code. I have two comments:

	WTF
	¿que?
