digitalmars.D.announce - LDC 1.41.0
Glad to announce LDC 1.41. Major changes: * Based on D 2.111.0+. * Support for LLVM 20; the prebuilt packages use v20.1.5. * macOS: Fix programs crashing on startup on macOS v15.4. * Keep frame pointers by default with `-O` for some targets, analogous to clang. This fixes druntime backtraces with optimized code (incl. prebuilt druntime/Phobos). * The prebuilt (non-musl) Linux packages are now generated on Ubuntu 22.04; the minimum glibc version has accordingly been raised from v2.31 to v2.35. * Reworked integration of the LLVM compiler-rt libraries. Package maintainers may want to see [docs/compiler_rt.md](https://github.com/ldc-developers/ldc/blob/master/docs/compiler_rt.md). Full release log and downloads: https://github.com/ldc-developers/ldc/releases/tag/v1.41.0 Thanks to all contributors & sponsors!

Thanks you Martin. Any specific reason to bump glibc / Ubuntu in prebuild binaries? (does gcc there is too old or something?)
