1) Install LDC for Linux.

2) Download and unpack LDC for Windows somewhere.

3) Edit ldc2.conf and add this block:

	"(i686|x86_64)-.*-windows.msvc":
	{
	    switches = [
		"-defaultlib=phobos2-ldc,druntime-ldc",
		"-link-defaultlib-shared=false",
	    ];
	    lib-dirs = [
		"/path/to/ldc/ldc2-1.24.0-windows-x64/lib",
	    ];
	};

4) Compile your program with '-mtriple=x86_64-windows-msvc'.

5) Profit. ;-)
