This didn't work. More errors than the first.

Works for me:

void main()
{
    import std.conv;
    import std.stdio;
    import core.stdc.wchar_;
    import core.stdc.stdio;

    auto f = fopen("hello.bin", "w,ccs=UTF16LE");
    scope (exit) fclose(f);

    import std.utf;
    string hello = "Привет";
    wchar bom = '\ufeff';
    auto str = hello.toUTF16z;
    fputwc(bom, f);
    while (str && *str) {
        fputwc(*str, f);
        ++str;
    }
}

$ rdmd wchartest.d
$ file hello.bin
hello.bin: Little-endian UTF-16 Unicode text, with no line terminators

$ hexdump hello.bin
0000000 feff 041f 0440 0438 0432 0435 0442

$ iconv -f UTF-16LE hello.bin
Привет

In any case, it conv should work.

No, it shouldn't. char* et al. are not string types in D. to!(char*)(string) just doesn't make sense.
