I get this error message when trying to build SciD with 2.057 beta.

Assertion failure: '0' on line 145 in file 'mtype.c'

This doesn't happen with 2.056.  I haven't had a chance to reduce this yet, but I will try tonight if the assertion failure isn't enough of a hint.  (I don't imagine reducing this one will be easy.)

I didn't realize the significance of this until I looked at the source code to mtype.c, but there's actually a line before the assertion failure line.  The full error message is:

ty = 41
Assertion failure: '0' on line 145 in file 'mtype.c'

Unbelievably simple test case after about 1.5 hours of recursively reducing SciD code:

struct S
{
    this(A)(A args) { }
}

void main() {
   auto s = S( null );
}

Thanks for your hard work, David. I found the problem, and am testing the fix.

Have you come cross this tool? It helps tremendously with reducing test cases: https://github.com/cybershadow/dustmite

I'm aware of DustMite.  I just never got around to setting it up/learning how it works because it doesn't look easy.  Usually reducing stuff like this doesn't take very long.  It's just that this one had to (unexpectedly) follow a whole chain of template instantiations.
