The second assert fails as does the out-contract in phobos.

The 'ifind' function has been broken for ages now. I've given up waiting
for it to be fixed, and I just use a slow workaround (find(tolower(x),
tolower(y)) - nasty stuff really.

Has someone sent a fix to Walter? Has anyone debugged the problem? Sometimes 
Walter loses track of fixes and he might have lost track of this one, 
assuming someone did send him a patch.

Some people (me included) naively thought this newsgroup was the place.

D still needs a bug database. (and then some, like Bug Parade or PEP ?)

The only problem with Walter is that there is too few of him... :-)

That's why I tried to get some process clarification about how to 
communicate phobos bug fixes to Walter. Can you repost your fixes and/or 
email them to Walter? I think things go best when you
1) make it easy for him and include doc updates if appropriate
2) send him uncontroversial content or send a link to a newsgroup discussion

The wiki for phobos can be a quick-n-dirty bug database. At least that's how 
I use it for std.stream. http://www.prowiki.org/wiki4d/wiki.cgi?Phobos I 
notice there isn't much else there bug-wise.

yup.
