I mentioned this also on the beta mailing list; the direct cause are the
changes done by David Simcha to avoid code in phobos that relies on issue 3534.
I also got this problem for startsWith, but almost all functions working with
ranges should be affected by this.

David also proposed a language fix for this that sounds promising, although I
did not really think through all the implications:

The alternative would be to change all functions dealing with ranges that have
this issue.
