Are these (known) bugs?

I could not use an Interval in a Variant, because Interval defines a 
length property which does not return a size_t value, and Variant does 
not handle it (I have filed a report about this).

Not only the ton of unit tests in std.datetime appears to make it 
rock-solid, but it seems it is also a good test case for other standard 
modules! :)
