As far as I'm aware, gtkD is not 64bit-ready. A lot of the code (or so I've come
to assume from some comments made in IRC yesterday) assumes that sizeof .length
is 4 (as is on 32bits).
I've also ran into one or two bugs using gtkD applications with more recent gtk
releases. Some deadlocks when performing one or two actions.
