Should this cast work? the assertion fails:


interface IFoo { }
class Foo: IFoo { }

int main()
{
   IFoo f = new Foo;
   assert(cast(Foo)f !== null);
   return 0;
}

is the !== deliberate or a typo?

Deliberate.  D uses a few odd comparison operators to differentiate whether the objects themselves are being compared or jus the references to them.
