at least for 64 bit Linux. Other platforms to follow.

This is what Andrei and I call "enabling" technology, as it opens the door for
many more uses of D, in this case better interoperability with existing C++
codebases.
Thanks to everyone who helped out with this, especially Elie, Iain, David and
Andrei!
Also looking forward to getting this in GDC and LDC!
Andrei and I feel that better interoperability with C++ is a major strategic
feature and advantage for D. As the recent thread with Manu's frustrations in
doing it show, we still have a significant way to go. But I hope to push it
forward hard in the next few months.
For the fearless who love working under the hood, extending the support to the
rest of the platforms is a great way to materially contribute.
