Well, I haven't actually gone so far as to look at the symbols in the library, but there is no libdruntime.a - only a libphobos.a - and it works. And if you build phobos, you still need to build druntime first. So, really, the only way that it could really work from what I can see is that libphobos.a includes the stuff from libdruntime.a in it. Why or how, I don't know. - Jonathan M Davis
