The broader topic of what compiler features Mir GLAS uses could
be the topic of an entire blog post in its own right, and might
be very interesting.
I guess this is my terrain. I'll think about writing that blog
post :)
Specific LDC features that I see in GLAS are:
- __traits(targetHasFeature, ...) , see
https://wiki.dlang.org/LDC-specific_language_changes#targetHasFeature
- @fastmath, see
https://wiki.dlang.org/LDC-specific_language_changes#.40.28ldc.attributes.fastmath.29
- Modules ldc.simd and ldc.intrinsics.
- Extended allowed sizes for __vector (still very limited)
To get an idea of what is different for LDC and DMD, this PR
removed support for DMD: https://github.com/libmir/mir/pull/347
