I've got a project that, due to extensive use of LuaD conversions, templates with a lot of parameters, and CTFE, has managed to require >4gb of ram to compile. Which means that, for the moment, I can't build on windows as the dmd compiler is a 32-bit executable and throws an out of memory error.

Is there any chance that we could publish a win64 build of dmd.exe?
