After pulling from vibe.d git master today, my vibe.d project doesn't compile anymore. `dub build` dies with:

	/usr/src/d/vibe.d/stream/vibe/stream/memory.d(56,42): Error: constructor vibe.utils.array.AllocAppender!(ubyte[], ubyte).AllocAppender.this (IAllocator alloc, ubyte[] initial_buffer = null) is not callable using argument types (IAllocator)

No idea where to even start looking, because the error message doesn't make sense. The ctor is stated to take an IAllocator as first parameter, and an optional second parameter defaulting to null. So why does calling the ctor with an instance of IAllocator fail?!

have you tried `dub upgrade && dub build --force` yet and pulled potential submodules?

Most likely, it's because of this: https://github.com/vibe-d/vibe.d/pull/1983

If you use dmd nightly you should see a better error message, courtesy of:
https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/7405
https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/7441
https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/7448

There was also a similar PR for vibe-core:

https://github.com/vibe-d/vibe-core/pull/43

I'm pretty sure that either of them is using stdx-allocator and the other isn't. The merged PRs might only be tagged/released in alphas.

Ah, figures!
