That is a major D design flaw biting you the same way it has
bitten so many others.
See the red box in my documentation fork:
http://dpldocs.info/experimental-docs/std.digest.digest.toHexString.2.html
toHexString returns a static array... on the stack. Then the
stupid language not only implicitly casts it to immutable, it
also implicitly slices it, giving you a reference to mutable,
temporary data pretending to be permanent, immutable data.
If I replace md5Of(arg).toHexString() with
toHexString(md5Of(arg))....
That works for me though... maybe it is just a version mismatch
or something, since toHexString is in a different module than
md5of.
