Passing -g flag to the linker causes a linker error on win32.
Very simple program:
import std.allocator;
void main() {}
Compilation commands:
dmd.exe -g -debug -c std/allocator.d -ofallocator.obj
dmd.exe -g -debug -c main.d -ofmain.obj
dmd.exe out.exe -g allocator.obj main.obj
Output:
dmd.exe out.exe -g allocator.obj main.obj

Error 42: Symbol Undefined __aligned_malloc

Without -g flag on the last command (dmd.exe out.exe
allocator.obj main.obj) no linker error appears.
