For anyone googling for a solution to this, here's a workaround:
auto b = iota(0, 256).map!"cast(ubyte)a";

Without string lambdas:

    auto b = iota(0, 256).map!(a => cast(ubyte)a);

I would suggest to turn this pattern into a new algorithm 
typically called

    iotaOf(T, B, E)(B begin, E end);

called as

    iotaOf!ubyte(0,256)

and use `std.conv.to` instead.
