Now that -m64 + LLD + MINGW works, the question is obvious.
The background idea is of course to allow the use of GDB under
Windows. At first glance the debug info API is not uniform.
This is visible if you compare dmd.backend.dwarf and
dmd.backend.cgcv and the naive idea which would be to replace
all the calls starting with 'cv8_' with their "dwarf_"
equivalent won't work (let's say to test in a first time,
later a new compiler switch could be added to select the debug
info format).
Just to make sure, do you know Mago-Mi? It is the Mago debug
engine with a GDB compatible interface. That means at every place
GBD is supported, also Mago-Mi can be used.
For example IntelliJ D Language plugin or Visual Studio Code or
DlangIDE...
Unfortunately Mago-Mi has some issues, written down here
