Last time I checked, that's what it did.  But it may have changed.

As Timon and deadalnix say, it's a bug in implementation.  In any case, I  
was focusing only on the [] expression, not the fact that you are  
initializing a static array.  The static array initialization should  
change how the expression is handled.
