Oh, wow, I just realized there's a std.stdio.File struct. That needs to be changed. Having File as a class in std.stream and as a struct in std.stdio is horrible :(
In any case, I think you want to use the std.stream File class, not the File struct. It provides no buffering, and has the appropriate "getHandle" function that would be needed for passing to a child process.
