That doesn't make sense to me, because the umlauts and the accented e
all have Unicode code point assignments.
This code snippet demonstrates the problem:
import std.stdio;
void main ()
{
dstring a = "e\u0301";
dstring b = "é";
assert(a != b);
assert(a.length == 2);
assert(b.length == 1);
writefln(a, " ", b);
}
If you run the above code all asserts should pass. If your system
correctly supports Unicode (works on OS X 10.10) the two printed
characters should look exactly the same.
\u0301 is the "combining acute accent" [1].
