Copied from Forum:

----
import std.conv;
void main() {
  static assert(
    is(typeof(("Failure: " ~ to!string(55)) == string))
  );

  static assert(0 , ("Failure: " ~ to!string(55)));
}
----
main.d(7): Error: static assert  
['F','a','i','l','u','r','e',':',' ','5','5']
----

The problem is the ugly-ass "print as array of individual 
characters".

Changing the code to
----
import std.conv;
void main() {
  static assert(
    is(typeof(("Failure: " ~ to!string(55)) == string))
  );

  static assert(0 , text("Failure: ", to!string(55)));
    or
  static assert(0 , format("Failure: %s", to!string(55)));
}
----
Works as intended.
