And also by removing the DVM stuff that was auto-added to .bashrc (if any).

If you haven't had such problems, then you should be good without wiping
~/.dvm. The most likely problem was with invoking a specific version of DMD
directly via "dvm-{version}", so that should be a good test. (At least that
was my experience on Kubuntu 10.04, YMMV.)
This issue shouldn't affect people who used the Windows betas since Windows
already uses completely different scripts with completely different syntax.
