D doesn't read the first character of a file (reads everything but the first chararacter) with either read() or readText()

[Enjoys Math via Digitalmars-d-learn]

DMD32 D Compiler v2.074.1

import std.file;

void main() {
   string bigInput = readText("input.txt");
}

The file is 7 MB of ascii text, don't know if that matters...

Should I upgrade versions?
