I've been recently trying GDC out to compile some D code and i'm running into the problem of differing function signatures in core modules.

For example:

stack.d:79: error: function core.memory.GC.calloc (ulong sz, uint ba = 0u) is not callable using argument types (ulong, BlkAttr, TypeInfo_Array)
stack.d:110: error: function core.memory.GC.realloc (void* p, ulong sz, uint ba = 0u) is not callable using argument types (string*, ulong, BlkAttr, TypeInfo_Array)
<snip>

These compile fine using DMD. Anybody know what the issue is here?

gdc is still 2.065, while official dmd is 2.066. signatures of this functions was changed inbetween. or maybe that was changed for upcoming 2.067, i don't remember.

GDC is still on version 2.065.

Ah right, so these methods changed recently?

yes. this is from gdc source:

  static void* calloc( size_t sz, uint ba = 0 ) pure nothrow

and this is from current dmd HEAD:

  static void* calloc( size_t sz, uint ba = 0, const TypeInfo ti = null ) pure nothrow
