From the tiny bit I've managed to remember, I think it's more like the first time Don-?? had ????? something ;)  (What's the root form of that verb in ramaji again? "kikiru" or something like that? I think it starts with a "k", IIRC (My apologies if "kikiru" is something bad))

Oops, I guess my newsgroup client can't send UTF. ;)

I've been intending to for a while, it took a while for me to clean it up, check all the licenses, and get it into a presentable form.

Essentially, it's pretty obvious that the world has changed, and closed source is no longer acceptable for a mainstream product that people will be relying on. Open source is the future, and it's past time for dmd to join the party!

Yeah, well, I'm not at liberty to change that license.

I don't know why that's there, I'll get rid of it.

You don't need it, I'll fix the makefile. total.h is for precompiled headers, which don't even exist on gcc.

It could be you're picking up the wrong mem.h. Try installing the source tree into a clean directory.

I can confirm that this indeed fixes the issues with the infinite loop in compilation for me.   And it does so without creating any blahblah__initZ errors too.  This is the first compiler since 1.037 that can actually compile my source.

Not sure about the speed though.  I haven't measured the compile time, but it did feel like it took significantly longer to compile than 1.037 did.  I'll measure it when I get the chance to see if there's really a difference or not.

It says "Don-san wa kakimashita:"  or "Mr. Don wrote:"

:-)

Great release! :)

Although I'm curious, where is the 3x speed improvement from? Just general misc optimizations, or something specific?
