my win32 program has been driving me nuts until I realized that the following
code:

/* --- console code --- */
import std.regexp;
import std.stdio;

void main() {
    auto r=search("abcdef","c");
    writefln(r[0]);
}
/* --- end of console code --- */

outputs "c" on the console. but the following win32 equivalent:

/* --- windows code --- */
import core.runtime;
import std.regexp;
import std.c.windows.windows;

extern(Windows) void WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance,HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,LPSTR
lpCmdLine,int nCmdShow) {
    void exceptionHandler(Throwable e) {
        throw e;
    }
    try {
        Runtime.initialize(&exceptionHandler);
        auto r=search("abcdef","c");
        MessageBoxA(cast(HANDLE)0,cast(char*)r[0],"Alert",0);
        Runtime.terminate(&exceptionHandler);
    }
    catch(Object o) {
        MessageBoxA(cast(HANDLE)0,cast(LPSTR)o.toString(),"Alert",0);
    }
}
/* --- end of windows code --- */

results in "cdef"! also, the compiled win32 program - without the exception
handling code - causes windows to crash.
