compiling DMD takes just a few seconds on recent machines, even 
compiles in about under 10 seconds on my old laptop, so I would 
recommend building it from source.

You can find build instructions on 
https://wiki.dlang.org/Building_under_Windows

Using digger it seems you can simply enable it by turning on 
components.dmd.debugDMD in the digger.ini file (that you can copy 
from the sample in the git repository)
