digitalmars.D - 64-bit DMD .exe for windows?

I've got a project that, due to extensive use of LuaD 
conversions, templates with a lot of parameters, and CTFE, has 
managed to require >4gb of ram to compile. Which means that, for 
the moment, I can't build on windows as the dmd compiler is a 
32-bit executable and throws an out of memory error.

Is there any chance that we could publish a win64 build of 
dmd.exe?

Yes, I had the same problem. Instructions are here: https://github.com/etcimon/botan/blob/master/dmd64_build_instructions.txt
