module main;

void main ()
{
    writeln("Hello");
}

Of course, this won't compile, but error message is confused:

C:\Git\hello\source>dmd app.d
app.d(5): Error:

erh?

I get a good enough error message(v2.078.2)

Exit code is: 1
..Error: `writeln` is not defined, perhaps `import std.stdio;` is needed?

Sounds more like you have env issues.

Report it on bugzilla: https://issues.dlang.org

My guess would be that the printf that's printing the error message is being given a null string or something along those lines, so it segfaults.

This is issue 18403. You should see an error message with some highlighted code, but dmd crashes when it tries to print that. You can invoke dmd with `-color=off` to work around the issue, or go back to 2.078.1 until we get a release with the fix.
