Compiler aborts on "global" const function ref

[ofelas]

Example code; (Is there a name for this?)

const io = @import("std").io;
// (1) Does not work as expected?!
//const cpf = io.stdout.printf;
var vpf = io.stdout.printf;

pub fn main(args: [][] u8) -> %void {
    // (1) Works here
    const cpf = io.stdout.printf;
    %%io.stdout.printf("args.len={}\n", args.len);
    // (1) When cpf in global scope
    // zig: ../src/codegen.cpp:767: LLVMOpaqueValue* ir_llvm_value(CodeGen*, IrInstruction*):
    // Assertion `instruction->value.special != ConstValSpecialRuntime' failed.
    // Aborted
    %%cpf("args.len={}\n", args.len);
    for (args) |*a| {
        %%io.stdout.printf("{}\n", *a);
        %%cpf("{}\n", *a);
        // ./bug001.zig:14:11: error: type '(bound fn(&OutStream,var,var)->var)' not a function
        // %%vpf("{}\n", *a);
    }
}

Thanks for this report. I've been working on it all day and it's revealed some deeper problems that I am fixing.

cpf at global scope works now. As for vpf, I think that's the same issue as #141.
