A simple struct assignment dereferences null:
tango/net/cluster/tina/QueueFile.d:120: internal compiler error: Bus error
struct Header // 16 bytes
{
uint size, // size of the current chunk
prior; // size of the prior chunk
ushort check; // simpe header checksum
ubyte pad; // how much padding applied?
byte[5] unused; // future use
}

End mass reassign of all gdc bugs.

I think Struct assignments now generate an implicit memcpy in GDC now. So I don't think this issue would happen given that you are still able to build for PPC64. I'll have a check on this though.
