Oh! while I have your attention...  Looking at the makefiles for DMD, 
all of them are set to build 32bit by default.  Usually that is unset, 
and the environment that you are compiling in dictates which one is 
implicitly chosen.

Why have it set to build 32 by default?  It's not an issue or anything, 
but it's been a long time since I've had a setup capable of build  32bit 
apps easily.  I always have to change that.  Is there any particular 
reason that that option is set rather than unset?
