I'm building with rebuild  v. 0.73 and dmd 1.023.

I get an internal error when using the -O flag... I have no idea why
Internal error: ..\ztc\cgcod.c 1523

If I use the -v flag to rebuild I don't get this error at all, it just 
failes

I had a similar message.  The best thing to do is construct a minimal test 
case and file a bug.

See my bug: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=1655

The best way to construct a minimal test case is to play with the code to 
see if you can get it NOT to fail.  See what's different about your code 
from other code.

I think this error is REALLY not helpful for creating bug reports.  It would 
be nice if the error at least displayed what code it was trying to compile. 
Sometimes you are building a piece of code that includes a whole bunch of 
other stuff, or is 500 lines long, how do you know which piece is failing?

so it's not that easy to know where to start to create a minimal example. 
It's also a long time since I compiled with -O for that project.

Make a copy of the project, then start pulling bits out till the bug 
goes away.  Put back the last thing you removed and pull something else 
out.  Sometimes it can be tough when things are very interconnected, and 
sometimes the bug is caused by 2 or more things interacting in a certain 
way.
