sscanf() compile errors (changed since dmd v0.118)?

[AEon]

Continuing to compile my 3.5 year old D code, the compiler yields this 
error:


dmd -c -w -version=db_log -I. aepar_p_q3a.d
aepar_p_q3a.d(189): function std.c.stdio.sscanf (char*,char*,...)
                     does not match parameter types 
(char[],char[],int*,int*)
aepar_p_q3a.d(189): Error: cannot implicitly convert expression (line)
                     of type char[] to char*
aepar_p_q3a.d(189): Error: cannot implicitly convert expression (ttempl)
                     of type char[] to char*


aepar_p_q3a.d:
---snip---
int rip_Time_in_Seconds( char[] line )
{
     char[] ttempl = "%d:%d";    // Time Template
     int min, sec;

     int ret = sscanf( line, ttempl, &min, &sec );	// Line 189
     int uptime = min * 60 + sec;

     return uptime;
}
---snip---


I want to keep using "char[] line" from my main function, so
what would be the clean way to avoid the compiler error?

Would casting be "good"? :

     int ret = sscanf( cast(char*)line, cast(char*)ttempl, &min, &sec );	

Works, no compiler error, but am I hacking something I should not?


Are there any "new" Phobos native commands that should
rather be used than the probably outdated sscanf() (from
std.c.stdio: sscanf() int sscanf(char*, char*,...); )).

Thanks
