Maybe I'm just too stupid, but I cannot manage to call a simple

with all 256 possible values of ubyte with iote:

int foo(ubyte c);
auto myRange = iota(0,256).map!foo;

-->  Error: function foo(ubyte c) is not callable using 
argument types (int)

and this is because of the f*** end-type cannot be ubyte 
because in phobos everywhere end is excluded, so I have to 
define it too large by one.

Has anyone any idea how to work around this?
I would have no problem using an explicit cast, but where 
should I apply it?

iota(0, 256).map!(x => foo(cast(ubyte) x))
