    const fac4 = (var x = 1; for i in 1..4: x *= i; x)
  Run

  results in compilation error with nimrod 0.9.2: Error: constant expression expected

  Bug or tutorials always assume one is using un-stable development version and this example works there?

  Thanks, Igor

  It's a regression introduced before 0.9.2 has been released... It works again in the devel branch, so please don't report it.
