I know, but this is still WHOA!!worthy. For one thing, it means the
64-bit compiler won't need the 32-bit support libs, which will simplify
adoption.

It is rather trivial. The main annoying problems were the change from
unsigned long => 64 bits wide, and the size/alignment of long doubles
changed. The former means there is no longer a 32 bit integer type
portable from 16=>32=>64. Bleh, although I don't foresee ever rebuilding
the compiler as a 16 bit host.

While a great step.. don't misinterpret that to mean that dmd is
generating 64 bit applications, just that dmd itself can be compiled
by a c++ compiler as a 64 bit app. (at least based on my cursory
glance through the changes)
