dmd.target
Handles target-specific parameters
In order to allow for cross compilation, when the compiler produces a binary
for a different platform than it is running on, target information needs
to be abstracted. This is done in this module, primarily through Target.
Note While DMD itself does not support cross-compilation, GDC and LDC do. Hence, this module is (sometimes heavily) modified by them, and contributors should review how their changes affect them.

- struct
Target
; - Describes a back-end target. At present it is incomplete, but in the future it should grow to contain most or all target machine and target O/S specific information.In many cases, calls to sizeof() can't be used directly for getting data type sizes since cross compiling is supported and would end up using the host sizes rather than the target sizes.
