Hi.  I realize that 64-bit phobos is relatively work in progress.  I thought I'd contribute.  struct_stat64 is broken on Linux x86_64 which further breaks an awful lot of file IO.  I have a small patch that fixes it.  I tested this with gdc 2.051 within gcc-4.5.2, with an attached program and comparing to the output from the 'stat' utility.  It is so basic and logic-free that I seriously doubt environmental considerations matter.  This doesn't completely fix file IO, but it at least gives it a running chance.  I can read files under 8MB, for example. :)
