          Issue ID: 21722
           Summary: toString(sink, string format) does not work with
                    non-"%s" strings
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P1
         Component: phobos
          Assignee: nobody puremagic.com
          Reporter: pro.mathias.lang gmail.com

```
import std.stdio;

struct Bar
{
    void toString (scope void delegate (scope const(char)[]) sink, string fmt)
    {
        sink("Hello");
    }
}

void main ()
{
    Bar b;
    writefln("%b", b);
}
```

This throws:

Reproducible with v2.089 - v2.096 (haven't tested older).
