What bug? Or did you mean to code ...

  char[][] words = std.string.split("hello world", " ");

That is, the delimiter of " " rather than " ;"

I mean use multiple chars (or-ed) as delimiters (I think that's the intended 
semantics of split(str, delim), correct me if I'm wrong). 
 
char[][] words = std.string.split("hello world", "\t\r\n\v ,.;");

where do you get the idea its supposed to do that? thats not what split

So is there any function provide the semantics I'm looking for?

Not yet, although it would be useful.
