Nice, rather than downloading the pre-built ldc for Windows and 
extracting its runtime, you may be interested in cross-compiling 
the stdlib yourself.  The only obstacle may be that the build 
requires a C cross-compiler for one or two C files, but clang may 
be good enough to do that now.

If you go that route, the ldc devs would appreciate a PR filling 
out this preset configuration stub to cross-compile for Windows, 
with the info you use:
