Yeah, you'll want to use dustmite. Hopefully the project isn't too big.

I haven't figured out how to use DustMite, but the error goes

Have you analyzed the phenomenon that failed with exit code 
-1073741795?
I also found a project with the same problem, it's called 
Phobos...

Here is a the last few lines of the detailed log (debug build and 
`-v` option enabled) with building Phobos:
```

```

In this example, the error code seems to have changed, perhaps 
due to a debug build.

I'm happy to do some debugging if you can get us a reduced test 
case. If you need help getting a reduction do ask (e.g. for help

I've been able to reduce it to this:

`void f() { import std.file : exists; exists(""); }`

(or `void f() { import std; exists(""); }`)

Create two files (`a.d` and `b.d`) with this code.

Build with: `dmd.exe -m32 -inline -O a.d b.d`

Removing any of the flags allows the compilation to proceed.

Thanks again, but it doesn't look like the changelog is picking 
up everything.

Granted, I'm not sure exactly when the deadline is, but I see a 
whole bunch of PRs merged from Walter on ImportC on the Github 
repo, but only one ImportC item listed in the changelog under DMD 
compiler fixes (and that looks like this is actually a druntime 
PR). The one after that seems to be a phobos bug fix.

It really would help if you provide some bugzilla urls or PRs 
that you think should have been picked up.

I'm not sure what the typically gets picked up, but I had done 
the search at the link below:
https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pulls?q=is%3Apr+is%3Amerged+ImportC+
and it didn't look like any of the recent bug fixes were listed 
on the changelog (I only see 23123 and 23340).

So for instance:

v2.100.2..v2.101.0` with my [hacked version of 
tools/changed.d](https://forum.dlang.org/post/jhmjyccxjxfrnboeaz
s forum.dlang.org), and all of a sudden I get "209 fixed Bugzilla issues" from
"72 contributors".  My faith in git log retrieving correct information has
plummeted. :-)

I'll push the fixed generated list into dlang.org, thankfully 
we'll never have to deal with this again (unless - queue dramatic 
three-beat sting - phobos is merged into dmd/druntime too).
