dpp + libuv: high memory usage. #250

I tried to create bindings for libuv, so:

uv.dpp

module uv;
#include "libuv/uv.h"

d++ --preprocess-only uv.dpp

It start running with 200+-mb of memory usage, no errors. Then it start to rise the memoy usage until it hit my pc limits (I have only 4gb on this machine so d++.exe got to 2.5gb of ram ), and never finishes the job.

So i´m not sure if its because my pc don´t have enough RAM to handle the job, or if libuv headers are causing some issue to dpp.

Tried it myself and didn't even have time to htop it to know how much RAM the process used. Ran htop first and did it again, and I think it went up to around 2GB in the whole 4s it took to run. You probably don't have enough RAM on that PC.
