dmd segfaults on 10.6.8; portfile has ppc/ppc64, but its dependency dmd-bootstrap is x86_64-only

[barracuda156]

Do I miss something? Portfile of dmd gives impression that the port builds for any arch, however its dependency dmd-bootstrap is only for x86_64. dmd portfile has depends_skip_archcheck-append dmd-bootstrap, however a) on a PowerPC machine it will be impossible to run x86_64 binary, which leaves potentially only Rosetta; b) on 10.6.8 dmd segfaults and does not build even for x86_64. That is, it is simply broken.

I have also tried the more recent @2.099.1, and it also segfaults:

Sorry, I am unable to maintain dmd ports.
