What's New
 * ClassInfo uses export attribute. This allows the use of classes with Dlls.  https://bitbucket.org/goshawk/gdc/issue/352
 * Corrects 64bit COM issues.  https://bitbucket.org/goshawk/gdc/issue/355

Features
 * D2.058
 * binutils with TLS patches
 * mingw-w64-runtime with TLS and stdio fixes.
 * GCC 4.6.1 with TLS patches

Due to the use of a newer runtime than TDM64-GCC it is **recommended** to install a copy of TDM64-GCC specifically for GDC.

Installation instructions:

1. Download and install TDM MinGW64
2. Extract the downloaded archive into the base of the newly installed TDM install.

If you've done this before, you can just do step 2.

GDC binary
https://bitbucket.org/goshawk/gdc/downloads/gcc-4.6.1-tdm64-1-gdc-6a4bafe80b-20120708-D2.058.7z

Please post all issues in D.gnu or on GDC's site https://bitbucket.org/goshawk/gdc

Known issues:
 * Stack walking is broken.
 * objcopy is truncating --add-gnu-debuglink section name which requires manually loading the symbols into GDB.
 * May break TDM64 C++.
 * Field-less structs will throw a null this exception.  When formatted by std.format.  runnable/test23.d

Awesome Daniel.   Do you want me to host this on gdcproject.org ?
