xformat is a template, in contrast to format being a plain variadic function. This, and the format string issue mentioned in the changelog. Other than that, there might be subtle differences because the underlying formatting code changed (now the same as e.g. for writefln). For example, I'd expect (without actually having tested it) that %s for xformat will »pretty-print« enum members instead of just printing the raw integer values, because the type information is now available as a template parameter.
