Huh? Are you suggesting there's no baggage associated with 
maintaining 32bit compatability?

Just to start with.. the build and release would be much simpler, 
for example.

As for source.. I expect you're in a better postion than I, do 
identify that baggage.

Of course if 'real' D users are using 32bit.. it's probably not 
correct to consider it 'baggage' as such. But that day is fast 
approaching ;-)
