I really need to see what the codegen for the latest DMD looks
like, I have no idea what the current state is. But this isn't
just true for Remedy, it's true for any engine programmer in
another company thinking of using D.
In context of this entire discussion though, a compiler switch to
give the codegen I want is my preference. I have no desire to
dictate how other people should use D/DMD, I just want the option
to use it the way I need to.
