writefln et al sensibly does *not* assume that a pointer to
char is a C string, for memory safety purposes.
Print the result of std.string.fromStringz[1] instead:
writeln(fromStringz(pString));
writefln("%s", fromStringz(pString));

Or use `to` like this:
import std.conv;
writefln("%s", pString.to!(string));
to!string behaving like that was a poor design choice[1]. Please
use fromStringz.
