Socket and SocketStream

I'm trying a bit of socket stuff.  I went back to the htmlget.d sample, 
and patched it up for 2.0 (I'm using DMD 2.042 on Ubuntu 9.10).  I get 
the same results from this as I do from my own code, which is that 
writeString() on the SocketStream throws an exception.

 From everything I can tell, I don't have an established connection, 
even though everything claims I have one.

Here is the updated sample code:

/*
	HTMLget written by Christopher E. Miller
	This code is public domain.
	You may use it for any purpose.
	This code has no warranties and is provided 'as-is'.
*/


//debug = HTMLGET;


module htmlget;
import std.string, std.conv, std.stream;
import std.socket, std.socketstream;
import std.stdio;

int main(string[] args)
{
	uint addr;
	if(args.length < 2)
	{
		printf("Usage:\n   htmlget <web-page>\n");
		return 0;
	}
	string url = args[1];
	int i;

	//i = std.string.find(url, "://");
	i=std.string.indexOf(url,"://");
	if(i != -1)
	{
		if(icmp(url[0 .. i], "http"))
			throw new Exception("http:// expected");
	}

	url = url[i+3 .. url.length];

	//i = std.string.find(url, '#');
	i=std.string.indexOf(url,'#');
	if(i != -1) // Remove anchor ref.
		url = url[0 .. i];

	//i = std.string.find(url, '/');
	i=std.string.indexOf(url,'/');
	string domain;
	if(i == -1)
	{
		domain = url;
		url = "/";
	}
	else
	{
		domain = url[0 .. i];
		url = url[i .. url.length];
	}

	ushort port;
	//i = std.string.find(domain, ':');
	i = std.string.indexOf(domain,':');
	if(i == -1)
	{
		port = 80; // Default HTTP port.
	}
	else
	{
		port=parse!(ushort)(domain[i+1..domain.length]);
		domain = domain[0 .. i];
	}

	writefln("Parsed domain: %s, port: %d and url: %s", domain, port, url);

	addr = InternetAddress.parse(domain);
	debug(HTMLGET)
		writefln("Connecting to %s on port %d...", domain, port);

	auto Socket sock = new TcpSocket(new 
std.socket.InternetAddress(addr/*domain*/, port));
	Stream ss = new SocketStream(sock);

	debug(HTMLGET)
		printf("Connected!\nRequesting URL \"" ~ url ~ "\"...\n");

	if(port != 80)
	{
		char[] temp=cast(char[]) domain;
		temp=temp~cast(char[])":" ~cast(char[]) (to!string(port));
		domain=cast(string)temp;
	}
	ss.writeString("GET " ~ url ~ " HTTP/1.1\r\n"
		"Host: " ~ domain ~ "\r\n"
		"\r\n");

	// Skip HTTP header.
	string line;
	for(;;)
	{
		line = cast(string)ss.readLine();
		if(!line.length)
			break;

		const string CONTENT_TYPE_NAME = "Content-Type: ";
		if(line.length > CONTENT_TYPE_NAME.length &&
			!icmp(CONTENT_TYPE_NAME, line[0 .. CONTENT_TYPE_NAME.length]))
		{
			string type;
			type = line[CONTENT_TYPE_NAME.length .. line.length];
			if(type.length <= 5 || icmp("text/", type[0 .. 5]))
				throw new Exception("URL is not text");
		}
	}

	print_lines:
	while(!ss.eof())
	{
		line = cast(string)ss.readLine();
		printf("%.*s\n", line);

		size_t iw;
		for(iw = 0; iw != line.length; iw++)
		{
			if(!icmp("</html>", line[iw .. line.length]))
				break print_lines;
		}
	}

	return 0;
}


And here is my invocation, and its response:

$ dmd -run ./htmlget2.d http://10.120.1.106:80/
Parsed domain: 10.120.1.106, port: 80 and url: /
std.stream.WriteException: unable to write to stream
$


Can anyone else duplicate this?  Or let me know if I'm doing something 
wrong in my updating of the sample code?
