Hi,

I'm looking on D compilers long time and there are still no compiler for Linux
64bit platform, althrough it is very popular nowadays.

What is the problem with 64bit?

Also is there a binging to MySQL client library ?

Code generation.  GDC is pretty close to supporting 64-bit though, from 
what I've heard.

4-bit support is almost ready.  The compiler works, but I am dealing 
with all sorts of build problems.

DDBI is supposed to support MySQL: http://www.dsource.org/projects/ddbi

You also might try: http://www.steinmole.de/d/ (MySQL for D)

By the way, I try to maintain a list of database-related projects:
