that's ok, if it works great, if not, oh well.
at least it executes ;-)
e.g clang etc won't even execute on xp.
It definitely crashed the last time I tested it, and the
aforementioned bug report has someone testing it, and it
crashing. So, either they've changed something that somehow
magically made our stuff work as-is, or you just got lucky.
Yes, **do** your own testing, as my concept of testing is at
best, dodgy...
i.e. I just grabbed all my .d files off FreeBSD 11, put them on
FreeBSD 12, and executed this: for f in *.d; do echo $f;dmd $f;
done
