Glad to announce the first beta for LDC 1.36. Major changes:
* Based on D 2.106.0.
* Support for LLVM 17; the prebuilt packages use v17.0.6.
* New GDC-compatible CLI options
`-fno-{exceptions,moduleinfo,rtti}` to selectively enable some
`-betterC` effects.
* Support for sample-based PGO via clang-compatible CLI option
`-fprofile-sample-use` and `ldc-profgen` tool.

Please give this some extra regression testing if you find the
time, as it's the first LDC version with enforced opaque IR
pointers, and there might still be related, hard-to-find bugs
lurking in our codebase. You can e.g. run *optimized* unittests
via `DFLAGS=-O dub run -c unittest -b unittest`.
So please help test, and thanks to all contributors & sponsors!
