The current release gave undefined thunks when heavily mixing classes and interfaces from different modules. My pet project wouldn't link I haven't had the time to dig into it and it may not be MinGW specific.
It generates errors like https://bitbucket.org/goshawk/gdc/issue/284/ but is not using LTO.
Additionally, I'd like to have a better testing procedure for such releases and find a reliable way to use gdmd outside of MSYS.
Are there work arounds if I should happen to run in to this? GDC is currently the only win64 compiler. I'm putting a lot of faith it in for the time being.
