BTW i haven't tried win32 functions with betterC. we should - and they should generally work, though the struct inits might cause linker errors in some cases.
Windows isn't the only one affected. Under CRuntime_Glibc (usually for Linux), std* and all are defined just like in CRuntime_Microsoft, which still make them unusable in a -betterC(-only) context.
Or maybe I'm the only special guy who makes my projects betterC as a whole.
General tip btw: if you do see a linker error about "undefined symbol _Dsomething_init", you can probably just use `= void` when declaring the struct so it is not automatically initialized (so same behavior as C) and then memset it to 0 or whatever you need.
Bless you! That was the last thing I needed to set for `_iob` (which in the Microsoft headers is set to _IOB_ENTRIES (20) and not _NFILE (512) (for FILE[*])), because I did cloned the Phobos repo and did modifications of my own, for my projects.
