Given that its natural type is ubyte* you should be able to do this:

# private import std.string ;
#
# char[] toString (ubyte* foo) {
#   return std.string.toString(cast(char*) foo);
# }

I would think so, anyhow.  If it will not allow a direct cast to char*, you can always add 
a middle state cast to void* first.
