I've found these threads concerning a precise GC:

http://www.digitalmars.com/d/archives/digitalmars/D/learn/Regarding_the_more_precise_GC_35038.html

http://www.digitalmars.com/d/archives/digitalmars/D/How_can_I_properly_import_functions_from_gcx_in_object.di_171815.html

Is this issue obsolete, or is it being worked on?

Reason being, I'm writing a game in D and I plan to write it in 
nearly 100% D (with the exception being OpenGL libraries and the 
like), but I know I'll run into problems with the GC eventually. 
If this is an active project that may get finished in the 
relative near term (less than a year), then I'd feel comfortable 
knowing that eventually problems may go away.

I want to eventually make this work with ARM (Raspberry PI & 
cubieboard), and the GC is a major blocker here (well, and a 
cross-compiler, but I'll work that out when I get there).

I'm using dmd atm if that matters.

Thanks!
