1336 – Internal error when trying to construct a class declared within a unittest from a templated class.

A templated class instantiated with a class declared in a unittest block cannot call the constructor for that class, but instead of writing an error the compiler returns:
Internal error: toir.c 182
The following code will cause this error to appear:
class X(T)
{
	void test()
	{
		auto t = new T;
	}
}
unittest
{
	class DummyClass
	{
	}
	
	auto x = new X!(DummyClass);
}
The code compiles fine if it is changed to this:
class X(T)
{
	void test()
	{
		auto t = new T;
	}
}
class DummyClass
{
}
unittest
{
	auto x = new X!(DummyClass);
}

If you put 'static' in front of the class declaration, it'll work.

Thanks, Walter. It still would be nice to get an error message for that though ;-)

I agree, which is why the bug isn't closed yet.

Fixed DMD 1.019 and 2.003
