I'm curious, is the work done to catch C++ exceptions separate from Walter's previous efforts with dmd, or does it build on his work in some way?As noted in the linked 1.7 release notes, kinke merged ldc's non-MSVC exception-handling with Walter's new DWARF efforts and integrated some work by Rainer for MSVC.

From LDC's README.txt: `LDC relies on the MS linker and MSVCRT + WinSDK libs.` The first part isn't actually true anymore, `-link-internally` makes LDC link itself via embedded LLD. **But you still need the Windows and Visual C++ runtime libs.** In the LDC release notes (v1.3 IIRC), you'll find a link to a guide about how to produce Win64 binaries from a Linux host; that'd be applicable on Windows too for people having such a big problem with installing Visual Studio/Build Tools.Could you explain hot to do it?
