64 bit C on Windows uses a different ABI, the exception handling support is different, there's no linker (oops), etc. It's a much harder job.

Which makes me think of two small unimportant questions I'm curious about:

What will be the 64-bit D calling convention? Will it follow the host platform's C calling convention? or will it be more uniform across platforms?

Also, why is 32-bit D using its own calling convention instead of reusing an already existing one? Why not use the host platform's C calling convention?
