Hi all,
   I think kinke mentioned somewhere that LDC master can build 
itself on Windows, but I am having troubles. It can compile 
itself (after applying a small fix, PR submitted) but it crashes 
while building druntime.
Is my build setup perhaps broken?

Thanks,
   Johan

Hi,

I just tried that, too. It seems to build a few files from druntime, bit 
crashes early. The top of the stack shows _d_newclass, so I suspect it 
could be GC related.

DMD is not supposed to use the GC, so as long as it is being disabled 
properly, that would be rather surprising.
