typeof(1.*im) returns Complex{Int64}

[yanncalec]

In Julia 6.0

julia> 1.*im==1.0*im
true

while the types of these two complex numbers are different:

julia> typeof(1.*im)
Complex{Int64}

julia> typeof(1.0*im)
Complex{Float64}

This seems incoherent with the case of real numbers.

Thanks for the report. This is deprecated on julia master to avoid confusion with broadcasting:

julia> 1.*im==1.0*im
