--- Comment #6 from Walter Bright <bugzilla at digitalmars.com> ---
I'm going to resolve this as invalid because:

1. I'm pretty sure it never did work, even if it compiled. va_list doesn't work
that way. At least now the compiler flags that this construct won't work.

2. va_list is magic on Posix 64, and this is allowed by the C Standard. We
can't make the compiler make this work and be compliant with C varargs.

3. What DWT is doing is not the right way to do things with va_list.

4. DWT will need work to port it to 64 bits, as it never has yet run on 64.
