Thanks for your bug report. The code you use is not standard; gcc
-pedantic says

a.cc: In function `int main()':
a.cc:20: warning: ANSI C++ forbids assignment of arrays

I'm not sure what you mean by "completely ridiculous": That you can
assign arrays in gcc, or that it requires exact same types on the left
and on the right hand side.

Regards,
Martin
