Supersedes #26120 (https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/pull/26120), which
fixed the reported case but left the `tfShallow` half of the same
condition open.
Since #25860 array literals are materialized into temporaries so that
`lent` results keep valid backing storage. In an async proc such a
temporary is lifted into the closure environment, and the environment is
filled with an `nkFastAsgn`, i.e. without `needToCopy`. `genGenericAsgn`
then emitted `genericShallowAssign` from the static const array, and for
the `string` elements that ends in `unsureAsgnRef` ->
`incRef(usrToCell(literal))` on memory that has no GC header:
proc f() {.async.} =
for ip in ["::1", "2001:db8::", "::"]:
await sleepAsync(1)
`OnStatic` sources must therefore always take the `genericAssign` path.
Note that the guard has to dominate the `tfShallow` test as well, not
just the `needToCopy` one: a `{.shallow.}` destination assigned from a
`const` crashes in exactly the same way. This is the precedence
`genOptAsgnTuple` and `genOptAsgnObject` already use, so
`genGenericAsgn` now agrees with its two siblings instead of
contradicting them.
refc only; the other GCs do not reference count in `unsureAsgnRef`.

Each test must have a filename of the form: t*.nim
Note:Testament is only aware of tests under a directory (eg tests/foo/) and will ignore
top-level tests like tests/tbar.nim.
Specs
Each test can contain a spec in a discard """ ... """ block.
Check out the parseSpec procedure in the specs module for a full and reliable reference
action
Specifies what action this test should take.
Default: run
Options:
compile - compiles the module and fails the test if compilations fails.
run - compiles and runs the module, fails the test if compilation or
execution of test code fails.
reject - compiles the module and fails the test if compilation succeeds.
There are certain spec keys that imply run, including output and
outputsub.
Categories
Each folder under this directory represents a test category, which can be
tested by running koch tests pcat <category> (or cat to avoid parallel
testing, which is slower).
The folder dll contains simple DLL tests.
The folder realtimeGC contains a test for validating that the realtime GC
can run properly without linking against the nimrtl.dll/so.
