I don't see it crashing over here. What version of dmd are you using? Do you have some extra long cwd or some non-standard characters in your path?
Usual path is "D:\Dev\M1xA\D" OS: Win 8 Pro 64 bit DMD 2.062 VS 2012 Express for Desktop
Code from Phobos successfully compiles, but crashes on 64 bit.
