This code triggers a static assert called "Nonsensical finite range with
slicing but no length" in std.range.take!string:

    string str = "abcdef";
    string result = str.take(3);
    assert(array(result) == "abc");

It probably has something to do with strings which have no length defined to so
they work with code units instead of code points.
