Example:

//---
import std.algorithm;
import std.stdio;
import std.array;

struct Forward
{
    static struct P
    {
        string s;
    }
    P* _p;

    this(string si)
    {
        _p = new P();
        _p.s = si;
    }
    @property dchar front()
    {
        return _p.s.front;
    }
    void popFront()
    {
        _p.s.popFront();
    }
    bool empty()
    {
        return _p.s.empty;
    }
}

void main()
{
    auto s = Forward("abc");
    auto s1 = Forward("ac");

    s.countUntil(s1).writeln();
}
//---

Produces "1".

ROOT CAUSE ANALYSIS: The "problem" is "startsWith", which will consume both its input (both haystack and needle). Here, the first call to start with will consume the "a" of both "abc" and "ac". countUntil will the pop the b off of "bc", and finally, call startsWith on "c" and "c".

Recommend saving ranges before calling startsWith (if both are ranges), but a more efficient solution could be found.

Assigning to self.

Fixed and verified by monarchdodra on 17 dec 2012.

Still requires writing some unit tests, which I will do after findSplit is itself also fixed for reference ranges.
