        return isSorted(s);
}

this code compiles find, but when run gives the following error:

core.exception.AssertError ./../../src/phobos/std/array.d(210): Attempting to
fetch the front of an empty array

same happens if operating on int not string
I'm using dmd2.030
same happens with dmd2.029

is that a bug?

... Yes, but not with Phobos. The comparison operator should use <
less than, if two items are equal they must return false.
isSorted(["TOM","TOM"]) is true, "TOM" < "TOM" is false.
