i love when people drops easy and obvious solutions, that's cool.
fixing legacy? no, too late. making self-hosting compiler work
without problems on any decent system? no, the project is nearly
complete.

ah, i know this smell. "stability, legacy, enterprise users, let's
design new unusable web-site", all that BS. i came too late -- again.
ok, i can at least stick with last non self-hosting version then. good
luck telling users that thay has to have D compiler to build D
compiler. and good luck persuading GNU/Linux programmers that they need
binary blob to compile D compiler. it's deadend -- at least for
GNU/Linux, in which i'm interested.
