 dmd foo.d

An above result is bug.
A correct result is:


 dmd test.d

4294967296
D:\tool\program\d\dmd\bin\..\..\dm\bin\link.exe test,,,user32+kernel32/noi;


Need To modify std/metastrings.d:


/// ditto
template ToString(long I)
{
    static if (I < 0)
	const char[] ToString = "-" ~ ToString!(cast(ulong)(-I));
    else
	const char[] ToString = ToString!(cast(uint)I); // <- "uint" to "ulong"
}
