Will do!  However, I've been to run all the tests.  The druntime-test-runner apps fails to build with the below error.  Any suggestions?

Error: template `core.internal.dassert._d_assert_fail` cannot deduce function from argument types `!("!", bool)(bool)`, candidates are:
core/internal/dassert.d(8):        `_d_assert_fail(string comp, A, B)(auto ref scope const A a, auto ref scope const B b)`

Good news :)
Would you be so kind to submit the required changes as PRs on
Github?
