This is what D actually needs: improving the tool-chain, fixing bugs, supporting additional architectures...

Sure, the language itself and the standard library still need a lot of work.

But D would already be quite usable, if only the compiler wouldn't choke up on circular module dependencies all the time, or if OPTLINK.EXE wouldn't keep crashing for no reasons, and all that. I understand that fixing bugs isn't all that simple or even gratifying, but having a stable and robust tool-chain is the most important things of all.

(Note: this is IMO one of the reasons, why C is still used, even for new projects.)

So I'm really happy to see that you take the time to address tool-chain issues. Good going!
