I've got a blog post coming on this in a few hours, so I would ask anyone considering sharing this on /r/programming before then to please refrain :-)

Could you please add a big visible "experimental" to the lld-link toolchain. It still has a lot of bugs and isn't ready for primetime.

It still has a lot of bugs and isn't ready for primetime. Done. Thanks! Maybe you or someone else could answer this reddit comment: https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/81pqwb/dmdthe_d_reference_compiler20790_released/dv4ae2t/ I don't know what the plans are going forward. |

Is is just me or did this release just break the latest non-beta vibe.d? Is the Jenkins build testing the dub packages on master instead of the latest tag?
