--- Comment #1 from Basile-z <b2.temp@gmx.com> ---
Is this issue only about the crash or do you mind about the thing being accepted too ?

Preventing the crash is easy an then compiler would output

Error: slice operation `cast(__vector(float[4]))[nanF, nanF, nanF, nanF] =
[1.00000F, 2.00000F, 3.00000F, 4.00000F][0..4]` cannot be evaluated at compile
time
        called from here: `Vec4(cast(__vector(float[4]))[nanF, nanF, nanF,
nanF]).this(i)`

which is accurate. The code to handle this case is not there. Then the issue would become an ER.

The top priority is to make sure that the compiler doesn't pretend to support operations in CTFE which don't actually work right. So, your proposal is acceptable, and definitely better than delaying action on this bug and 20041.

However, it would be nice if this actually worked, too. Seeing as the runtime in-memory layout of __vector(float[4]) and regular float[4] is identical, I'd hope that the CTFE machinery for the latter could be applied to both fairly easily.
