Here's a new release candidate featuring a few fixes by klickverbot, fawzi, 
wilsonk and Deewiant as well as DMDFE 1.057. It's still using LLVM 2.6 and 
Tango 0.99.9 and is available for Linux x86-64 at:

http://www.incasoftware.de/~kamm/ldc/ldc-0.9.2-x86_64-rc3.tbz2

The plan is to release the new version of LDC next week. If someone feels 
like building and bundling it for 32 bit systems, I'd gladly host it and 
include it in the announcement.

Christian

I suggest to post such things in the announce newsgroup.

Can't you add something to this site?

Cool!
Is there any chance of an update to the dstress page? It'd be great to 
see how both LDC and DMD are doing, even if only a few times per year.

I tried to get some dstress runs done when the first release canidate 
came out, the test runner keeps crashing on me for some reason though 
(that's also the reason why automated dstress runs on LDC commits 
stopped). I'll try with a clean install of everything soon and see how 
things go. Unless someone beats me to it of course :)

I don't see the funny side, am I missing the joke? I might add that the 
test runner is written in C and it's barely been modified since it was 
first written 5 years ago... Volunteers to port it to D?

The idea of a tool designed to help improve reliability that, itself, keeps 
crashing, just seems amusingly ironic.

Will LDC support D 2.0 and Phobos in the future?  If so, do you have an

At some point, probably... it doesn't look like it's going to happen any 
time soon though. I was working on it, and managed to get druntime 
compiling (and almost completely running), I just don't have time to 
work on it any more though. It seems the other LDC developers have also 
been busy in this respect, so unless someone picks up from where I left 
off it could be a while.
