[D-runtime] Arghhh, DLLs broken on Win32 *again*!

[Steve Schveighoffer]

None of the changes in Martin's patch should affect runtime, they are implementation details.  Except he removes the isRunning function from the public API.  So it's really an API change that is causing it not to build.

I remember when I added array append caching (and safety to array slice appending), I needed a function which not only allocated memory, it returned the block info.  So I added that to druntime's normal GC.  But I didn't update the gcstub, and it broke the DLL build.  See here: http://forum.dlang.org/post/4B8352FC.2030408@digitalmars.com
