I just tried to compile it on Linux with dmd v2.071.0 in 64bit 
mode. The compiler emits loads of deprecation warnings concerning 
module import, and it seems to be geared towards 32bit:

[...]
engine/source/dmdscript/dstring.d(953,16): Deprecation: module 
std.string is not accessible here, perhaps add 'static import 
std.string;'
engine/source/dmdscript/expression.d(216,9): Warning: statement 
is not reachable
engine/source/dmdscript/expression.d(306,28): Deprecation: module 
std.ascii is not accessible here, perhaps add 'static import 
std.ascii;'
engine/source/dmdscript/expression.d(318,9): Error: static assert 
  (8LU == 4LU) is false
dmd failed with exit code 1.

The error message refers to:

`    override void toIR(IRstate *irs, uint ret)
     {
         static assert((Identifier*).sizeof == uint.sizeof);  // 
<======
         if(ret)
         {
             uint u = cast(uint)Identifier.build(string);
             irs.gen2(loc, IRstring, ret, u);
         }
     }
