I do not believe this is a bug. If you require a pointer to a constant, you have to make a variable, then assign the constant to it, then point to the variable.
Or, you can put it in data, then point to the data label address.
Unless something has changed that I missed.

- Added: #StringConstant$ syntax support, to get the address of a string constant
I just found out that it worked with PB_5.50_beta1. The other beta versions unfortunately I could not test.

This is added in PB 5.50, but has not yet been implemented.
