So I then decided let's update my compiler version to 4.1.2. Then compile the C and C++ compiler sources with the gdc mod. It fails everytime. I would love to have gdc on windows. I will likely use it when I transfer my computer to an x64 non-windows OS.

Ugh, I have not been maintaining the Windows port... This and another 
problem have now been fixed in SVN.  I actually tried building *on* 
Windows this time, so it should work for you.
