It seems to me that clearly, in the first case, the dimensioned

this.
Is this a bug or am I making an error or asking too much?
As you now realize, the bug is in your program. The compiler is not
designed to do array-bounds checking, hence it is not a bug in the
compiler.
You might want to read this page in Apple's docs for suggestions on
tools to help you in debugging this sort of problem in your program:
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/DeveloperTools/Conceptual/
XcodeUserGuide20/Contents/Resources/en.lproj/db_set_up_debug/
chapter_39_section_8.html
But in this particular case, it shouldn't be hard to see where your
bug is since the array has only 4 elements so stepping through the
relevant code in the debugger would be very fast.
