I looked into GDC a little bit, and I'm wondering if it can support the cell processor? I was looking at this article:
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/power/library/pa-linuxps3-1/
There are some additional things that are required to be used to fully use the cell processor. GCC is mentioned in this article so I think GCC would be the most appropriate compiler for C/C++. Since you guys support Linux Based PowerPCs, then i simply want to know, based on this article, if it would be possible to fully utilize the cell with D.
