            Bug ID: 26880
           Summary: Misleading error: array initializer must be an
                    initializer list (when initializing an array with an
                    initializer list)
           Product: clang
           Version: trunk
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P
         Component: Frontend
          Assignee: unassignedclangbugs at nondot.org
          Reporter: gonzalobg88 at gmail.com
                CC: llvm-bugs at lists.llvm.org
    Classification: Unclassified

The following snippet:

struct Foo
  {
    int const data[2];

    Foo(std::initializer_list<int const>& ini)
    : data(ini)
    {}
  };

Foo f = {1,3};

Gives as error:

error: array initializer must be an initializer list

    : data(ini)
    ^

But the array initializer _is_ an initializer list. Every time I hit this I am
puzzled for half I minute till I recall "oh wait, there was something weird
about this".
