this is actually two questions, so i'll answer to two questions.

1. What can replace malloc that can run on compile time?
new ubyte[](size)

2. ...and won't make it slower at run time?
but we can still use malloc in runtime! `if (_ctfe)` allows us to select 
the necessary code branch.

p.s. i don't think that this is the only problem, though. but i never 
read "std.regexp" source. it's bad, 'cause i want to make it work with 
any range, not only with strings. this will allow to run regexp on 
anything -- and open way to my rbtree-based document system.
