          Issue ID: 19596
           Summary: Docs on .walkLength are wrong
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: All
                OS: All

https://dlang.org/phobos/std_range_primitives.html#walkLength

"This is a best-effort implementation of length for any kind of range."

This statement from the docs is not true.

walkLength (and probably some other functions) do not work for a range with
 disable'd copy constructor. So it is not "for any kind of range" as claimed in
the docs.

Correct either the code to conform the docs or the docs.
