How to pass it to C functions that expect a non-null string?
Specifically to GTK+ (using gtkD)
I also asked this on stackoverflow

Using D1 with phobos
I have a text entry field, instance of gtk.Entry.Entry,
calling setText("") raises a run time error
Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_entry_set_text: assertion `text != NULL' failed
Why? It seems to be a problem with D, I tried this:
string empty = "";
assert (empty != null);
my_entry.setText(empty)
The program terminated as the assertion failed.
How can I work around this?
