Schizophrenia of Phobos.
Phobos thinks a string is a range of dchar instead of a range of char.
So what cycle, take, and array all output are dchar ranges and arrays.
When you cast the dchar[] result to a string, (which is a char[]), it
then treats all the 0's in each dchar element as '\0', printing a blank
apparently.
This has to be one of the most obvious cases I've ever seen that phobos
treating string as a range of dchar was the wrong decision. That one
can't use ranges to make a new string is ridiculous. Just the thought of
"fixing" this by re-encoding...
