Where is the patch? In the original post you said you'd post the patches  
"tomorrow", but I haven't seen them here or linked from the building  
instructions.

Here's what I'm getting:

../../../libphobos/internal/gc/gcx.d:900: Error: function  
win32.os_query_staticdataseg (void**,uint*) does not match parameter types  
(void**,ulong*)
../../../libphobos/internal/gc/gcx.d:900: Error: cannot implicitly convert  
expression (& nbytes) of type ulong* to uint*
../../../libphobos/internal/gc/gcx.d:917: Error: function  
win32.os_query_staticdataseg (void**,uint*) does not match parameter types  
(void**,ulong*)
../../../libphobos/internal/gc/gcx.d:917: Error: cannot implicitly convert  
expression (& nbytes) of type ulong* to uint*

Yep, this is D1.
