pre-initialization of list in struct not allowed

[GoogleCodeExporter]

please refer to attached example

would be nice if initialization of lists, introduced several revisions ago, 
would also work in structures.

Fixed in r2278.

(just for the record)
This case is semantically quite different from the list initialization. The 
point is that the structure is a definition of a new TYPE, so the list size in 
this case is related to the TYPE, not to a variable as it was before.
As a consequence - unlike for the variables - here a constant value is 
required. Here is an example:

int a = 2;
int b = 3;
int list vari[a+b]; //OK, declaration and initialisation
struct S {
   real list tt;// OK
   real list t[11]; // OK now
// real list error[a+b] // will fail
};
S s;// OK, declaration and initialisation

I guess - this is not a surprise though.
