          Issue ID: 20016
           Summary: JSON (-X) compilerInfo.platforms generation depends on
                    params.isXXX for platform detection
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: dmd
          Assignee: nobody at puremagic.com
          Reporter: ibuclaw at gdcproject.org

These parameters will eventually become private to dmd/target.d, there is also
no way for an interfacing compiler backend to their own platforms.
