I've tried it using .NET 2.0 and 4.0. It works fine on 32-bit, but both 
versions fail with ArgumentException on x64. (All the patches from 
Windows Update are applied.)

It however works with .NET 4.5 RC on x64. (That is indeed the next 
release after the the date of their comment on connect.)

Note that the workaround is simple: Not to use InitializeArray for enum 
arrays.
