Via godbolt I got this stack trace for ldc:

```

Appears the erroring code is dmd.utils : arrayCastBigEndian.

https://github.com/dlang/dmd/blob/master/compiler/src/dmd/utils.d#L240

Failing code:

```d
void main()
{
    static immutable CasingDiced[] ReturnValues =
cast(CasingDiced[])x"FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF";
}

struct CasingDiced {
    ushort lowerOffset, lowerEnd;
    ushort titleOffset, titleEnd;
    ushort upperOffset, upperEnd;
}
```
