[swift-dev] Xcode 8 GM: Compiler segfaults on ExpressibleByArrayLiteral

Since it's just about the Swift compiler and types found entirely in the standard library, you can be confident about bugs.swift.org. (It's a bit more of a mix when there's system APIs involved: sometimes that's the compiler and sometimes it's the SDK. But this one doesn't go there.)

Thanks, Ole!
