  • SR-773 Using Array initializer syntax with nested types causes bad error message

Issue Description:

// this should create an empty Array<Swift.String> 
// but the compiler tries to creates Array<Swift.String.Type> instead
// and yells to remove `()`
var array = [Swift.String]()

I believe this is a bug where `.self` magic confuses the compiler.

Effectively the same as SR-773.
