I am trying to create a new file for writing, as a log file, like this:
new File("gltest.log", FileMode.OutNew);
and find that with any of the "write" options the file appears to be
opened for exclusive access on windows, so another process cannot then
read from the same file. Is there a way around this? Other than
continually opening and closing the log file, which also won't work
because then the log file can't be written to if it's being read from.

I have also seen that readline like activity:
foreach (char[] line; input) {
will make system calls for one byte at a time? Is there no buffering in
the phobos lib?

I've raised a bug for the wrong share mode.
The workaround is to say: FileMode.OutNew | FileMode.In even if you
don't want to read from the file.
