If there's another better way, I'd sure like to know about it!

There were many people screaming about it.
Just there is nobody who could make it work.
Walter claimed that compiler is shared-lib ready, it is just
druntime that is lacking. And he hasn't got knowledge to make it
work on his own.
Sean Kelly is out - he was Walter's bet to make it work.
My hope was Martin Nowak, he was working on it but seems that he
also got busy with other stuff
