The example of a (non-template) variadic function at
http://dlang.org/variadic-function-templates.html does not compile:

  - It is necessary to add import core.vararg
  - std.stdio.writefx is private (and undocumented)

Adding the import and changing writefx to write does not fully solve the
problem:

Someone please finish that update.

Also, perhaps it should be added that the use of variadic functions is not
recommended, and they are kept almost only for the support of extern(C)
variadic functions? Or is that not true?
