Nothing new here but I almost fell prey to this bug today. Spot the bug:

import std.stdio;
import std.range;

int[3] bar() {
    return [ 1, 2, 3 ];
}

auto foo() {
    auto a = bar();
    return zip(a[], a[]);
}

void main() {
    writeln(foo());
}

In the real code, bar() was a call to std.datetime.benchmark, which also returns a static array. (The compiler is helpful in the trivial case of foo returning a[] instead of hiding it through zip.)

DIP 1000 is targeting such bugs:
