Different loops bug

This is derived from part of a D.learn post, maybe it's of your 
interest.

This program shows two similar versions of the same loop:


import std.stdio, std.algorithm, std.typetuple, std.range;

void main() {
     auto items = [[10, 20], [30]];

     foreach (_; 0 .. 2) {
         foreach (sub; items) {
             iota(sub.length)
             .map!((i){ writeln(sub); return 0; })
             .array();
         }
     }

     writeln();

     foreach (_; TypeTuple!(0, 1)) {
         foreach (sub; items) {
             iota(sub.length)
             .map!((i){ writeln(sub); return 0; })
             .array();
         }
     }
}


Its output:

[10, 20]
[10, 20]
[30]
[10, 20]
[10, 20]
[30]

[10, 20]
[10, 20]
[30]
[30]
[30]
[30]


Do you see why the output of the two foreach(_) is different?
