Question about assembly output

Hi, I noticed that(on x86) using core.bitop in LDC outputs a call instead of directly turning them into instructions as both dmd and gdc do. Is this intended behavior?(I'm not a big assembly expert, so this could just be a really dumb question on my part.) example: LDC http://goo.gl/T1ZJaD dmd http://goo.gl/f1gaOb gdc http://goo.gl/RDlP0n

Hi rsw0x,

this is not intended behaviour. Could you please create an issue for it?
