Nice!  Based on your other post, I'm a little confused.  Is this a 
barebones 64-bit compiler, or is it at least an attempt to patch Phobos 
and druntime to work on Win64?  Right now pretty much all time/energy I 
have for D work is being devoted to tracking down the Heisenbug from 
Hell in std.parallelism (which I think might actually be a codegen bug 
that's messing with the low order bits of pointers), so I won't have 
time to look at this in much detail until that gets fixed, but after 
that I'll be willing to put it through some serious testing.
