Well, the above has two bugs that sparse could notice _independently_ of
variable-sized arrays:
- assignment outside of a function
- variable size array that isn't an automatic variable
(strictly speaking, that's not even a variable size - it's a constant 2,
just with a non-constant expression - maybe you misread the "=" as an
"==")
