Trust me once it's merged you'll be disappointed because the 
problem were templates all along (hence my work on type functions)

As far as I can tell it's quite far from being merged.
It's a lot of code. It's rather clean but there are 14_000 lines 
of it.
It has to emulate most of the runtime library, and a few platform 
facilities like exception handling after all.

It's written on top of a code-generation API and it includes 
multiple backends for it. (most of them barely functional by now)

The newCTFE-ABI has to be documented.
As well as the codegen-API itself.

Don't hold your breath :)
But it least you can play with it soon, if you build your own dmd.
