Compiler crash on compile-time NimNode variable as a `static NimNode` param to macros. #1448

Closed Luyten-Orion closed 2 months ago

Luyten-Orion commented 2 months ago

Example

import std/macros

var myNode {.compileTime.} = newStmtList()

macro test(n: static NimNode) = discard

myNode.test()

Actual Output

fatal.nim(50)            sysFatal
Error: unhandled exception: mirgen.nim(2501, 18) unreachable: nkNimNodeLit [AssertionDefect]

Expected Output

The compiler should allow this as valid code.
