... though you can with char. This code also worked in D1.
---
void bug5218c(char [3] s) {}
void bug5218w(wchar [3] s) {}
void bug5218d(dchar [3] s) {}

void main()
{
    bug5218c("abc");
    bug5218w("abc"w);
    bug5218d("abc"d);
}

PATCH: This is because "abc"w and "abc"d are committed types. If the type is committed, implicit conversions are not performed at all. But this is wrong: they should still allow const/immutable conversions.
