MS linker by default allocates console window for programm if he see a main function as entry point and not allocates if he see a WinMain function as entry point.

So, if I don't want ugly console window for gui app, I can specify SUBSYTEM:WINDOWS linker flag and change a main to WinMain.
But I want to use ENTRY linker flag and do not modify source code.
With ENTRY flag a executable successfully compiled, but crashes at startup.

Any valid D Way workaround?

dmd -release -m64 -L/SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWS fl64.lib fl_test.d
LIBCMT.lib(wincrt0.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol WinMain

fl_test.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals

When compiling without modification in source.

P.S.: Win 8 64 bit, Dmd 2.061. fl64.lib and fl64.dll - custom library.
