That's definitely on option, but I don't believe that either LDC or GDC is even 
close to up-to-date with regards to D2 (the GDC page lists 2.020 as the version 
it supports, and we're on version 2.048). So, if D2 is what you're looking for, 
then your best bet is to wait for 64-bit dmd to be finished. If you're using D1, 
though, both LDC and GDC should be good options.
