Thanks for the info, though I haven't managed to really get much working on my machine. What really gets my goat about all this though is that with the recent update from PC-BSD to TrueOS, my desktop no longer is able to work with D properly (since while FreeBSD 9, 10, and 11 all work with D, FreeBSD-current - which is what TrueOS is based on - has serious issues with druntime), and then when I went to redo my laptop the other day, I set it up with Kubuntu, because the Cannonical folks were actually willing to build the ZFS drivers into the kernel, and I was sick of problems caused by the ZFS drivers not loading properly, which means that _both_ of my machines are now crippled with regards to D. So, I can't really do much with D right now outside of a VM. Having one machine crippled would be bad enough, but both? Definitely rotten luck. I don't know how much I'll be able to do about the TrueOS/FreeBSD problem, but I'm clearly going to have to spend time at least narrowing down the problem, since AFAIK not many of us use FreeBSD around here. So, if I don't at least jumpstart things on that one, I'm probably out of luck for the forseeable future. But it looks like it's probably a druntime problem, so I _might_ be able to fix it. It looks like this Debian/Ubuntu problem is totally up to the compiler devs though and completely outside of my area of expertise. It would be really nice though if it at least _one_ of those problems were fixed. - Jonathan M Davis
