Just my two bits here.  I would like to see Linux x86_64 support, above all 
else. I am the guy that added x64 support to ldc, solely because I have nothing 
but 64bit machines here ;)

This doesn't mean that I use the 64 bit address space and all those registers, 
and that I max out the system every day (as another part of this thread seems 
to indicate is a requirement????)...it just means that dmd wouldn't work on my 
machines and gdc didn't support/compile some code I was using. I needed a 
working compiler on x64 Linux and poking inside gdc is not my favorite 
activity, so I updated ldc.

Thanks,
K.Wilson

P.S. I also have access to a PPC Mac, so I guess that would be second on my 
list...I think Mac support in general would be nice.
