Has anyone else had this issue, when you code a new indicator and the header is left as the default MetaQuotes heading such as this
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| my indicator.mq4 |

//+------------------------------------------------------------------+

When you change the information some of the original MetaQuotes text remains, I have noticed if you put the mouse pointer over the indicator in the indicator Navigator list often either the MetaQuotes name remains or part of it remains so it appears that the original name somehow is retained in some form and does not completely update to the new information.
For example take the standard MetaQuotes indicator

and when you mouse over in the indicator list the name pops up as "cja MetaQuotes Software Corp." if you change the name to
#property copyright "cja cja cja cja cja cja ." the name now pops up as "cja cja cja cja cja cjaoftware Corp" so it appears that you have to physically overwrite the entire " Copyright 2005-2014, MetaQuotes Software Corp." text or set a space at the end of the text to get around it such as "cja cja cja cja cja cja........................................ " . Not a major issue but something I have noticed in the later builds such as 840.

On my build 840 it is OK. Usual different builds even though the numbers are same?

That is usual for new builds
Well, bug happens. But this simple one points to the fact, that they use no internal quality process, relying on volunteers' reports after "beta" release.
In build 872, the problem you had with arrays seems to be solve (I used the test code that I posted some time ago, and the terminal was not crashing)

Are they still calling it beta?

No announcement of a new release - still a beta

That is why I turned the automatic updates off
Not exactly a bug, but maybe someone ran into it :
If you try to give some long name to indicator (in a separate window) you might end up with default name. Metatrader allows names up to 63 (not 64 but 63) characters. if the name is longer than that then it tries to use default (file name) or some previous name
