Christopher,
Because "hello" is array of char from type point of view.
It is same as
char no_ident [] = {'h', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o', '\0'};
You forgot the static keyword:
Sentence 903:

But depending on context a conversion occurs.
Sentence 729:
http://c0x.coding-guidelines.com/6.3.2.1.html
and your example is one where such a conversion occurs.
