Thanks, Adam.
Is this roughly the same on all relevant platforms for DMD?
I was thinking [hoping?] that maybe this was a problem vis-a-vis the Mac
OS X linker, i.e. a situation such that the linker isn`t dropping
anything from the referenced libraries, even when the majority of the
stuff in those library files is not being used in the
currently-being-linked object file.
It's not just a problem with the linker on OS X. The same problem exists
on Linux and Windows as well. On Linux with LDC the --gc-sections flag
is used which will reduce the binary size.
