If you remove accented letters from "blacklist" array it works
fine. Why?
Works for me...

Can you produce a failing case on dpaste?
sort() requires UTF32 input (a dstring/dchar[]) or it will fail.
UTF8 (i.e. string type in D) is a variable-length encoding and
if such input is given to sort it would refuse to compile since
it cannot sort it in-place (a guarantee sort() makes).
I guess that in case UTF8 input with 1-byte only characters is
given to sort() it can detect that there are no variable length
characters and that is probably the reason your code works when
you remove non-ascii characters.
sort works just fine with string[]. Note that he's not sorting a
string, he's sorting an array of strings.
