Hi all!

LLVM 3.7 has been released some minutes ago! See the release 
notes here: http://llvm.org/releases/3.7.0/docs/ReleaseNotes.html


Also note that LDC is mentioned in the release notes as one of 
the projects who are already supporting LLVM 3.7. Just recompile 
LDC using master/merge-2.067 branch from GitHub.

This is the 7th time that LDC and D are mentioned in the LLVM 
release notes!

Regards,
Kai

Nice. Emulated TLS for ELF was added in llvm 3.7, looking forward to trying that on Android, which doesn't have native TLS.

And these champions broke the C API... In the meantime patches proposed to avoid this happening are stuck in limbos. That's fucking ridiculous.
