Hi everybody, I recently became interested in the D programming language and saw that the Hurd support was not great. In gcc-11 there is some basic support in gdc but none in the runtime and standard library. Newer versions of gdc require a previous gdc.
On a 32bit Hurd I am currently able to build gdc-11 -> gdc-14 -> dmd 2.112 -> dmd 2.112. After convincing gcc-11 to recognise x86-64-*-gnu it also works there. I am currently trying to make the tests pass in dmd, druntime and phobos as some of them still segfault. I hope that getting ldc to work only requires minimal additional changes but as I am currently unable to build llvm for hurd I have not looked into it. I'd really like someone to double check my changes especially the druntime ones with the libc/pthread constants and struct definitions. Before that I'd like to clean things up a bit as i my focus so far has been functionality over style. What would be the best way to do that? Y.
