H. S. Teoh:
Then they
have to figure out how to extricate the AA-dependent parts of
dmd out of
all the places they're sprinkled in, *without* breaking the
rest of the
language, so that a proper library replacement can be put in
its place.
(Not to mention that said replacement must be 100% compatible
with
existing D code, lest hordes of angry users knock down your
door -- not
a trivial task given the current quirks of AA.)
The new AAs should be allowed to drop some of the precedent
quirks and to introduce several new fresh quicks.
Bye,
