Corporate schizophrenia is not all that rare. In fact, any corporation of sufficiently large size often exhibits such symptoms, IME. The view of corporations as single, coherent entities is one I've always been skeptical of. Be that as it may, upon my latest update of git HEAD of dmd / druntime / phobos, I noticed the beginnings of dynamic linking in Phobos. I haven't tested how well this works with 3rd party D dynamic libraries yet, but this is a wonderful step forward! I'm looking forward to full dynamic library support in D in the near future!!
