When compiling the following test case:

======
using System;

namespace ConsoleApplication6
{
    unsafe class Program
    {
        static int a;
        static int* the_ptr = (int*) 0xdeadbeaf;
        static int** the_pptr = (int**) 0xdeadbeaf;

        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Console.WriteLine ("TEST: {0:x}", new IntPtr (the_pptr).ToInt64
());

            fixed (int* a_ptr = &a)
            {
                Console.WriteLine(new IntPtr(a_ptr));

                int*[] array = { the_ptr };
                int*[] array2 = { a_ptr };
                int* ptr = the_ptr;
                int** pptr = the_pptr;

                fixed (int** pptr2 = &the_ptr)
                {
                    Console.WriteLine(new IntPtr(pptr));
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
======

I'm getting

======
asgard at isengard:debugger$ mcs -unsafe -debug
/work/mordor/ConsoleApplication6/ConsoleApplication6/Program.cs

Try using a new expression instead

This works fine with Visual Studio.
