You can try command cp 65001 in the console window (and change
your font accordingly).
Just for info, this is probably a d related bug, because the
Racket language for example has a (reencode-output-port)
function, and it Works.
I don't know know about Racket, but D's problems are related to
the C runtime library. Here is what I found out:
-m32 (uses DM C library): output to stdout works, but stderr is
broken (corrupt accented characters, or total output freeze).

-m32mscoff and -m64 (Microsoft C runtime): broken characters and
some mysterious failures.

So this leaves transcoding as the only viable solution. Luckily,
there is std.windows.charset.toMBSz function you can use.
