[svn r219] Fixed: the tango/lib/gc/basic garbage collector now compiles and links into an executable (change in tango/lib/llvmdc-posix.mak), closes #5 . Changed: removed the crappy realloc based dynamic memory runtime and started moving over to DMD style runtime support, part of moving to real GC. Fixed: dynamic arrays now use GC runtime for allocating memory. Fixed: new expression now use GC for allocating memory. Changed: revamped the dynamic array support routines related to dynamic memory. Fixed: assertions no longer create exsessive allocas. Changed: misc. minor cleanups.

This is the source code to the front end Digital Mars D compiler.
It covers the lexical analysis, parsing, and semantic analysis
of the D Programming Language defined in the documents at
www.digitalmars.com/d/

The optimizer, code generator, and object file generator are not part
of this source, hence the source does not currently constitute a complete,
compilable program. However, many people have expressed a strong interested
in producing a D compiler with the GNU compiler sources. This release should
enable that.

These sources are free, they are redistributable and modifiable
under the terms of the GNU General Public License (attached as gpl.txt),
or the Artistic License (attached as artistic.txt).

It does not apply to anything else distributed by Digital Mars,
including D compiler executables.
