I hope this gets fixed one day. Here is an updated example, where it still
doesn't work (for stderr, stdout is ok) as of DMD 1.035

import std.c.stdio;
import std.c.windows.windows;

extern(Windows) export BOOL SetConsoleOutputCP( UINT );

void main() {
    SetConsoleOutputCP( 65001 ); // or use "chcp 65001" instead
    // Codepoint 00e9 is "Latin small letter e with acute"
    fputs("Output utf-8 accented char \u00e9\n... and the rest is OK\n",
stdout);
    fputs("Output utf-8 accented char \u00e9\n... and the rest is cut off!\n",
stderr);
    fputs("STDOUT.\n", stdout);
    fputs("STDERR.\n", stderr);
}
