Alright, windows has finally finished it's update and reboot death spiral, I have beta checked out and figured out how to build it. I should be able to fix this today.

Attachment: Fix dmd test on mozilla-beta

I think this is the fix. The test that was failing now passes locally, but another fails due to basic-scan.json being invalid json (we write windows paths which looks like weird escapes to the json parser). This might just be a quirk of my setup. When try comes back from the dead I'll do another push.

Thank you for looking into this. This change looks good. Another option that might be simpler is to just disable the test entirely on Beta, which I'd be ok with.
