+A user-defined dereference was attempted in an invalid context. Erroneous
+code example:

+```
+use std::ops::Deref;

+struct A;
+
+impl Deref for A {
+    type Target = str;
+
+    fn deref(&self)-> &str { "foo" }

+fn main() {
+    let foo = S;
+}
+```
+
+You cannot directly use a dereference operation whilst initializing a constant
+or a static. To fix this error, restructure your code to avoid this dereference,
+perharps moving it inline:
+
+```
+use std::ops::Deref;
+
+struct A;
+
+impl Deref for A {
+    type Target = str;
