Bug 11013 – ignoring variable inside the predicate of findSplitBefore

I missed some functionality in std.algorithm, so i decided to use findSplitBefore for my purpose. Here is the code: http://dpaste.dzfl.pl/68f9ba62 Unfortunately, ignoring second variable in pred, results in compilation error like this: /opt/compilers/dmd2/include/std/algorithm.d(4292): Error: template std.algorithm.find matches more than one template declaration, /opt/compilers/dmd2/include/std/algorithm.d(3504):find(alias pred = "a == b", R, E)(R haystack, E needle) if (isInputRange!(R) && is(typeof(binaryFun!(pred)(haystack.front, needle)) : bool)) and /opt/compilers/dmd2/include/std/algorithm.d(3555):find(alias pred = "a == b", R1, R2)(R1 haystack, R2 needle) if (isForwardRange!(R1) && isForwardRange!(R2) && is(typeof(binaryFun!(pred)(haystack.front, needle.front)) : bool) && !isRandomAccessRange!(R1)) /opt/compilers/dmd2/include/std/range.d(611): Error: static assert "Cannot put a char[] into a Appender!(string)" /opt/compilers/dmd2/include/std/format.d(1433): instantiated from here: put!(Appender!(string), char[]) /opt/compilers/dmd2/include/std/format.d(1335): instantiated from here: formatUnsigned!(Appender!(string), char) /opt/compilers/dmd2/include/std/format.d(1309): instantiated from here: formatIntegral!(Appender!(string), ulong, char) /opt/compilers/dmd2/include/std/format.d(2950): ... (5 instantiations, -v to show) ... /opt/compilers/dmd2/include/std/algorithm.d(4294): instantiated from here: tuple!(string, string) /d682/f882.d(6): instantiated from here: findSplitBefore!("a==a", string, string)

Please paste small code examples inline, thanks! ----- import std.algorithm : findSplitBefore; void main() { auto var = "abc"; var.findSplitBefore!q{a==a}(var); } -----
