Isn't that a good example of why "having three compilers" is not 
necessarily good for D? It's often praised as a good thing, but 
then we come across such things, when compiler X1 is good for Y, 
but compiler X2 isn't good at it, and things done for one 
compiler need to be ported to the other compiler.
