Sorry about that, but the beta has been out for a week and a half, and we fixed every reported regression since 2.058.

The best I can suggest is to file a bug report and we'll try to figure out what went wrong.

Awesome.  Thanks for all the hard work guys.

P.S.
I just noticed the 'Fork D on Github' on the download page; The red looks sexy.

However I cannot download the .dmg file on my MAC OS X system. The link:

    http://dlang.org/dmd.2.059.dmg

does not work.

and the file in question is not available on the ftp site

http://ftp.digitalmars.com/dmd.2.059.dmg

Any idea of when it will be available? And by the way, thank you and
everyone else for all your hard work.

You can still use the zip, that includes all platforms.

I think I've finally narrowed down the cause of "seas of errors" appearing in unrelated code:

Just use DVM, very easy to install new compilers:

Truth be told, I'm too experienced on the MAC. Only had it
for about a month so I haven't learned to much about it yet.
I was relying on the package. Thanks to your suggestion though,
I took the opportunity to try and learn. Got everything installed.

1) removed /usr/share/dmd

2) unzipped dmd.2.059.dmg to /usr/share/

3) removed /usr/share/dmd/freebsd, /usr/share/dmd/linux,
and /usr/share/dmd/windows

4) moved contents of /usr/share/dmd/osx to /usr/share/dmd

5) removed empty folder /usr/share/dmd/osx

6) created new aliases for dmd, dmd.conf, dumpobj, and obj2asm
in /usr/bin

7) tried compiling but received error message:
-bash: /usr/bin/dmd: cannot execute binary file

8) compares attributes of new executables with newly inserted
files with other executables in /usr/bin and noticed a few
differences.

9) Spent the last two hours trying to figure out how to resolve
but cannot.

Files in /usr/bin have no extended attribute (@), all belong to
root, and are in the wheel group. So I tried to follow suit.
With the exception of being able to get rid of the extended
attribute, everything else is the same. To get rid of the @
I tried sudo xattr -d /usr/share/dmd/bin/dmd and
sudo xattr -d /usr/bin/dmd but neither worked.

Help? Please!?!

Thanks for the whole D team for your great work!

Btw. Is it possible to tag new releases with respective git commit hashes? This is for those who compile DMD, druntime and Phobos manually.
