While you're fixing it can you modify it so that the format string
can specify the order in which the arguments are replaced? This is
very important for i18n. I apologize if it can already do this but
I was unable to find any documentation of format()'s format string
other than examples with %s at the appropriate places.

You can use positional arguments for this purpose. For example:
writefln("%2$s %1$s", "a", "b");
outputs "b a".
Yes, I eventually found the documentation in std.format while I expected
it to be in std.string along with the documentation the format()
function. A reference to std.format in the documentation for format()
(in std.string) would be nice.
