Hi all,
  While debugging an ICE, it was helpful to look at the Logger output (obviously :), but, because it is buffered, the output log did not stop at the point where the crash happened.
I added fflush(stdout) to Logger:printf/printfln to help with that.
Is this something more people would like to have? Can we add an option somewhere to enable this?

cheers,
  Johan

Hi Johan!

IMHO the logger code needs to be redesigned and unified. But with the switch to DDMD I don't think that this has a high priority...

Yeah I didn't mean anything big. pragma(LDC_verbose) is a big
help for me as an D/LDC newb.

Is there a good argument against simply flushing Logger::printf ?
Yes it will be slower, but I think very few people compile
programs with pragma(LDC_verbose) without trying to find a bug? :)
