How come you didn't do this as a proper fork/branch of dmd?
At first, I downloaded a zip of your fork just to take a look at it - I had no intention of actually modifying it. But, then I started to play around and never cleaned stuff up. /home/me/d/toys/yebblies-dmd-7723455/src That's the name of the directory where it lives on my computer :) I pushed it up to github last night right before making the ng post as a last-minute decision, figuring github would make it easier for people to look at. Redoing it as a proper fork won't be that hard; most the changes are in the one microd.c file anyway. Maybe I will next weekend.
It's also not too hard to strip out the backend if you want to redistribute the binary. (stub out e2ir,s2ir,glue,toobj,iasm and remove the backend specific stuff from main)
Cool. I took a quick look at doing that but just horribly broke my build. Isn't parts of ctfe implemented in glue.c though? I don't see it obviously in there, but I thought I saw something about that once.
