Doesn't writef/writefln accept wchar[] / dchar[] as format strings?  Or is there some other functionality that's missing?

Sure. Or at least, I expect so.

I just got back to some old code from last year, for turning COM type libraries into classes, and it's got a lot of wprintf() in it, which now no longer compiles. So it just prompted my curiosity.

I think it's a bug. It is commented out in std.c.stdio - it shouldn't be. The history is that it was in object.d but declared as taking wchar which was the wrong type on Linux. In order to make it take wchar_t it was removed from object.d but it looks like it wasn't uncommented in std.c.stdio.

I think it was an accident.  If you're so inclined, however, you might want to take a look at my standard C headers:

They're a bit more complete than the ones in Phobos, and the layout is as close to standard as I could get it without any undue cleverness.
