This causes the same error with or without 'immutable', but works fine within functions.

// create some global constants
private
{
    immutable ulong2 signMask2 = 0x8000_0000_0000_0000;
    immutable uint4 signMask4 = 0x8000_0000;
    immutable ushort8 signMask8 = 0x8000;
    immutable ubyte16 signMask16 = 0x80;
}



$ /opt/gdc/bin/gdc test.d -O2 -S -msse2
test.d:101: Error: non-constant expression
cast(immutable(__vector(ulong[2u])))9223372036854775808LU
