Hi Adam,

I'm also interested in your solution, as the std.xml page is so 
sparsely documented I can't make head nor tail of it.  Also, 
neither of the examples compile for me, making life that little 
bit harder!

Sadly, I can't get your code working either!  I have downloaded 
the folder zip from your github link, and extracted it so that 
all the .d files are living in C:\D\dmd2\src\phobos\arsd\

If I try to compile the code you gave above, I get a pile of 
linking errors using D 2.059:

Do you have any idea what's going on?!
