Otherwise there is the unfortunate workaround to build with "dub

VisualD and building 64-bit instead of 32-bit will solve the issue, as

I have hit this issue now too just by trying to build with unittests:

e:\_docs\_bitbucket\stack4server\src\vibe\s4server>dub build --build=unittest

What kind of workaround do i have ?
