1610 :: VM: setting object element value fails

```
static:
  type Obj = object
    i: int
  var o: Obj
  o.i = 2
  echo o.i
```
generates SIGSEGV: Illegal storage access. (Attempt to read from nil?)

Is this a know problem or shall I sumbit a bug report?

We have a fix for that already. :-)

Brilliant! I pulled the latest, I guess you haven't commited the fix yet.

Sorry, turned out that the fix in the pipeline doesn't fix this bug. However, the workaround is easy:
```
type Obj = object
  i: int

proc p() {.compileTime.} =
  var o: Obj
  o.i = 2
  echo o.i

static:
  p()
```
