- making D2 fitter for the LLVM back-end;
I've noticed you keep mentioning this. What exactly is it you mean by this? If you mean allowing the dmd front end to be identical in both dmd and ldc, I don't think that will ever happen (although getting it close should be possible). Putting together a patch to submit for dmd is on my to-do list for ldc2, I figured I'd wait for ldc2 to be in a more stable state before doing this though... No point submitting the patch when there's a nice chance it's going to change a lot as the (rather large) number of ICEs on valid D2 code drops (About 80% of Phobos2 causes an ICE currently. The rest compiles, but I doubt the code functions correctly, I didn't bother testing!).
That said, merging newer frontends in the mean time would be a lot simpler if I put together a basic patch...
