Hello, PR author here.

This was done as part of my GSoC Project, for which you can see
a description here [1].

This PR specifically was replaced by this PR [2].

Now, the short answer of what happened to this project is that 
the goals
were bad. And for the fact that I know this, I thank Johan 
Engelen and
Manu Evans (other people people had pointed out their doubts,
and I appreciate that too, but Manu's and Johan's
input was pivotal). You can check their comments in [2] and [3].

There a lot of things to say about this project but I think this 
thread
is not the best place to have this discussion.
You can post in the project's thread [4] and be sure I will 
answer any questions.

The project is almost done. Edi needs to push his latest commits 
and rebase with latest master; he was delayed because there were 
some issues with building gdc with the generated headers, but he 
told me that he fixed them. His work can be found here [1] and 
the description for Gsoc, detailing what has been done here [2]. 
There are still limitations though, for example: templates cannot 
be translated yet.

I spent quite some time on getting the headers to work with gdc, 
as detailed in the project report [0].

This week I had an epiphany related to ctor/dtor declarations. If 
it's ok with everyone, lets keep this discussion in one thread 
and stick with the original GSoC forum post [1].

Cheers,
Edi
