Please remove the static_cast from this testcase; I don't want to support

I have no problem removing the static_cast from the positive test case.
However, in the interests of being as explicit as possible about just
what this extension does and doesn't do, I think that if we decide it
doesn't apply to new-style casts then we should probably have the
compiler issue an error message.
Certainly.  Care to add it, or at least an XFAILed error test?
Separately, I think.  I'll have to learn how to distinguish
between old-style and new-style casts in the IR.  I'll also
add a note to the documentation saying that the extension
doesn't apply to new-style casts.  A couple days.
