I know Walter does care about the DMD-Win64 debuginfo quality, but I don't think
the debuginfo output is capable of addressing all the problems alone.

I (and others like Rainer who help a lot with Win64 support) also cannot do a thing without targeted bugzilla reports.

How do you feel about using the DMD-Win64 + Visual-D suite as a dev environment when working on druntime+phobos for a while? Try debugging some issues using the VS debugger...

I've suggested that devs need to understand the end-user experience. I think you'd reveal a lot of the really trivial issues (that are non-trivial in aggregate) very quickly.

I'll continue to log bugs as I find them, I didn't this weekend because when finding a bug, I then need to spend the time to boil down a minimal repro case, and we were working against the clock >_<
