DMD can generate 64-bit object files just fine, you only need to link

It is unreasonable to pull in the many GBs of Visual Studio as a
dependency only to use its 64-bit linker.
The Linux and Mac versions rely on Linux/Mac's native C linkers,
regardless of 32/64 bit. If Win's native linker is too large, or can't
be obtained as part of a small enough package, that's really a Microsoft
problem. You can't blame Samsung if there's nothing good to watch on TV.
