[dmd-beta] Time for beta - 2.066?

[Andrew Edwards]

I'm having problems building on win7x64. Anyone ever encountered this 
issue and know a fix?

     https://gist.github.com/AndrewEdwards/84777566

Observing the dmd/src, druntime, and phobos directories I noticed that 
dmd/src does not contain an win64.mak file but the others do. This 
shouldn't matter though, I thought, because when building dmd I specify 
MODEL=64. I don't think it made a difference.

I took a look at win32.mak and noticed a reference to PVS-Studio. I 
didn't have it installed but all attempts to compile dmd prior 
succeeded. Just out curiosity I went ahead and installed it but now I 
can't compile dmd. I get the following:

     LINK : warning LNK4004: unrecognized option '/p512'; ignored
     LINK : warning LNK4004: unrecognized option '/c'; ignored
     LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'frontend.lib'

     --- errorlevel 1104

I'm at a lost at the moment. I guest a better question to ask is does 
anyone working on Win64 regularly build and use dmd from source? If so, 
can you provide the steps to properly configure my system?

Thanks,
Andrew

This error can happen if one attempts to link together files compiled 
with different memory models - but that shouldn't be happening. I don't 
know what is going wrong here.

What snn.lib are you linking with? Also, can you post your message to 
the beta list, perhaps someone else has seen this issue too?
