The release 0.9.1 of LDC, the LLVM based compiler for the D programming
language, contains the following major improvements:
* lots of bug fixes (http://www.dsource.org/projects/ldc/report/15)
* x86-64 support is mature
* inline asm improved (we now define D_Inline_Asm)
* cross-compilation support
* uses boehm-gc during compilation (x86-32 only)
* D specific optimizations:
* turn GC allocations to allocas if possible
* simplify or remove certain calls to D runtime functions
The command line interface of LDC now has added options in line with other
LLVM based tools. Please use the ldmd wrapper if you want a drop-in
replacement for DMD.
