I've never used your GDC but that doesn't stop me from saying how much I
appreciate your work in this. I know that it is *not a trivial* task by any
stretch of the imagination. Thanks, David.

Agree and thanks David! I may switch over to GDC just for the GDB and objdump
support with MinGW :)

Excellent work!

Since there is now full support for Mac OS X 10.4 (GCC 4.0.1)
and Windows MinGW (GCC 3.4.5) directly "from the source" so to
speak, there is less need for the gdcmac and gdcwin projects...

Will do some experiments, see if this can replace my packages ?
I can build another version of the Mac and Win binaries, just
wondered if there is any need for them to exist any longer...

And I needed to document the package build process anyway :-)

BTW; This file seems to have gotten the wrong suffix:

Do you have instructions on how to set up GDC for windows? I would like 
to try it out sometime.

Thanks David and Anders!

Maybe not the Windows package, but my MacOS package doesn't have an 
installer and the Xcode integration info isn't there.

Please do continue with gdcmac, it adds greatly to my experience. I just 
love to only need to worry about the actual task, not how to be able to 
start tackling the task.

I think there is need for gdcmac, gdcwin, and probably packages for say 
Ubuntu/Debian, and a few other linux distros as well. The easier, and 
more "like the rest" it is to install gdc, the more likely that even 
more people pick it up and use it.

No more building from source?  Fantastic!  I suppose this means 
different binaries for different versions of GCC?

By the way, thanks a ton for your work on GDC.

Currently, I'm only building the most recent GCC version for a given 
target.  If I do more than that, I might need another hosting service.

Is it possible to build a 64-bit version on any platform yet?  I realize=

Building a 64-bit version on Linux isn't impossible, for some details
have a look at "building GDC-0.18 on an AMD64" in D.gnu
(news:2g83l3-mku.ln1 birke.kuehne.cn)

However gdc can currently only produce 32-bit object files.
