http://play.golang.org/p/KoR8BizdMq

reports:

/tmp/sandbox991543070/main.go:3: constant 0+1i truncated to real

but the error should say: constant 0+1i truncated to int

since the complex constant is used with an int value.

go/types reports: 1i (untyped complex constant (0/1 + 1/1i)) truncated to int
