Description David Simcha 2011-02-16 06:57:23 UTC 
To build DMD as a 64-bit binary:

make -flinux.mak MODEL=-m64

To build Phobos or Druntime as 64-bit:

make -fposix.mak MODEL=64

These are not consistent and should be.
Comment 1 Brad Roberts 2011-02-16 10:10:48 UTC 
Worth noting, you don't need to build dmd as a 64 bit binary to have it generate 64 bit output.  I do agree that consistency would be good.

While fixing inconsistencies, there's a similar one for building phobos between the posix and win32 make files.  posix.mak uses DRUNTIME_PATH and win32.mak uses DRUNTIME.
Comment 2 David Simcha 2011-08-12 20:31:48 UTC 
Fixed with the new posix.mak makefile.
