>Description:
Compilation of the file leads to

error_build_modify_expr.cpp: In constructor `foo<D>::foo() [with int D = 1]':
error_build_modify_expr.cpp:15:   instantiated from here
error_build_modify_expr.cpp:11: Internal compiler error in build_modify_expr, at cp/typeck.c:5494
Please submit a full bug report,
with preprocessed source if appropriate.
See <URL:https://qa.mandrakesoft.com/> for instructions.
>How-To-Repeat:
Compile the file with no special flags

g++ error_build_modify_expr.cpp
>Fix:
Remove the templateness of the file (in this case, the template is useless :-)).
Otherwise, this is not possible. The const array must be initialised in another way.
But the standard C++ does not define any way, I think...
