Would be nice to have a DMD debug build for distribution, it attempts to call JIT Debugger for dmd.exe right before it starts linking. I'm using Windows 10. If you can reduce the test case that causes dmd to crash, we can fix it. Please report it to bugzilla!

compiling DMD takes just a few seconds on recent machines, even compiles in about under 10 seconds on my old laptop, so I would recommend building it from source.

You can find build instructions on https://wiki.dlang.org/Building_under_Windows

Using digger it seems you can simply enable it by turning on components.dmd.debugDMD in the digger.ini file (that you can copy from the sample in the git repository)

Nope, does not compile here.

Sorry, I have no faint idea on how I could reduce a project that big, I actually believe I'm hitting an edge case, the same way I was hitting before the package.d, which I just circumvent by changing the file name.

I found out what it was: -preview=dip1021 is making my project crash: https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23484 Just opened the issue
