Glad to announce LDC 1.36.0. Major changes:

* Based on D 2.106.1.
* Support for LLVM 17; the prebuilt packages use v17.0.6.
* New GDC-compatible CLI options 
`-fno-{exceptions,moduleinfo,rtti}` to selectively enable some 
`-betterC` effects.
* Support for sample-based PGO via clang-compatible CLI option 
`-fprofile-sample-use` and `ldc-profgen` tool.

[...] Awesome! Thanks to everyone involved in making this awesome compiler available! T -- I've been around long enough to have seen an endless parade of magic new techniques du jour, most of which purport to remove the necessity of thought about your programming problem. In the end they wind up contributing one or two pieces to the collective wisdom, and fade away in the rearview mirror. -- Walter Bright
