Spurious "assigning an error to a variable"

[KristofferC]

julia> lintstr("""
       function f{N}(::N)

 none:2 E539 j: assigning an error to a variable

This particular case seems fine to me because N has to be a type. I suppose the original code had N as a dimension type parameter though? That is indeed a bug. Thanks for the report.

I reduced the example too much but yes, originally it was a dimension type of parameter.
