Sorry. It was late and I forgot to mention some things. A) My code is  
dependent on patch 5155, and B) I forgot about changes, etc, that I had to  
make to go from DMD 2.051 to DMD 2.052. I've uploaded my current working  
copy and remade the docs. Let me know if you have any issues with this.  
(And please include a brief description of what/how you're building it:  
i.e. dmd 2.052, debug mode, etc) Also, if you want to try my updated  
std.json, it requires a few more patches, each listed at the top of the  
file.
