Description kennytm 2010-02-21 03:06:41 UTC 
import std.range;
void main() {
   iota(1L, 10L);
}

Expected:
  Compile successfully.

Actually happening:
  Compile error with

  /usr/include/phobos/std/range.d(2158): Error: cannot implicitly convert expression (aBitAboveCount) of type long to uint
Comment 1 kennytm 2010-06-22 23:31:59 UTC 
As of Phobos r1686 the code still cannot compile correctly. The new error is

    /usr/include/phobos/std/range.d(2161): Error: cannot implicitly convert expression ((this.pastLast - this.current) / cast(long)this.step) of type long to uint

Fixed in r1690: http://www.dsource.org/projects/phobos/changeset/1690
