digitalmars.D.ldc - Question about assembly output

Hi,

I noticed that(on x86) using core.bitop in LDC outputs a call 
instead of directly turning them into instructions as both dmd 
and gdc do.

Is this intended behavior?(I'm not a big assembly expert, so this 
could just be a really dumb question on my part.)

example:

LDC

dmd

gdc

Hi rsw0x,

this is not intended behaviour. Could you please create an issue 
for it?
