I will try to get the exact messages tomorrow but I found that 
the difference is that under visual D it adds (amongst others) 
the -O and -deps filename options. If I add _both_ of those on 
the ldc2.exe command line it often crashes. without either it's 
stable.

I'll try to get a self contained report tomorrow.
