Sorry, no, nothing to do with the type. The error came from a special case 
where ch='\0'. Seems some routine in dmd does not like that; but no idea where 
the error comes from.
There are two points to solve, I guess:
* The error message should tell where it happens.
* '\0' is a valid code point, should pass through without error.
