http://dlang.org/lex.html#EscapeSequence still lists octal digits, even though
they've been removed from the language.

Wait. It looks like the spec specifically states that while octal literals have
been removed, octal digits in string literals are still supported. The behavior
that I'm seeing for them in dmd does seem a bit weird to be me, so I guess that
I'll have to play around with octal digits in strings a bit (the problem is
probably with my understanding rather than dmd though).
