9. create a module that enables code to be run on GPUs (John

Now that I'm on my (southern hemisphere) winter break I will be
working on getting LDC to emit PTX and SPRIV and if I get time
whatever metal uses to be able to use D as the source language
for CUDA, OpenCL and Metal respectively. This should hopefully
enable seamless integration with the use of introspection and
whatnot.
This would give us a huge advantage, being able to target the
three major compute APIs.
This would be awesome. I would love to get my hands on prototypes
of this, no matter how buggy and unfinished they are at any given
point.
