is compiled from this code:
    std.stream.stdin.read(input);
    if (input > 2) return input;

the LOCAL.1 address is pointed to the read(), but is not changing to the
input value.
instead i get '168636723' for every input i give in..

anyone experienced with it ?
is it a compiler bug or my problem ?

I'm not sure why read() is behaving like it is, but I would try using
scanf() instead. read() is for binary input. scanf() is for text input. Are
you typing in values from the console or are you piping something into
stdin?

If you are typing at the console you need to use scanf. For example,
 import std.stream;
 int main() {
   uint input;
   stdin.scanf("%u",&input);
   stdout.writefln("you typed ", input);
   return 0;
 }
