cannot assign to array[index]

[Akuli]

declare malloc(size: int) -> void*

def main() -> int:
    x: int* = malloc(111)
    x[1] = 8

Expected result: no error

Actual result:

akuli@Akuli-ThinkPad:~/jou$ ./jou asd3.jou
compiler error in file "asd3.jou", line 5: cannot assign to a newly calculated value
