Since the compile chain knows whether the target system prepends an underscore, I wonder if it can be bubbled up into some compiler trait or version that prevents writing versioned code based on system. I think it would help gdc much as it has many targets, and many prepend underscore to symbols. It would help with unittests like compilable/cppmangle.d that would have to be tailored for every OS. that uses gcc3 style C++ mangling.
And you think it's safe to assume all symbols on OS X will always have an underscore as a prefix just because symbols for C and C++ stuff do? (Hint: some Objective-C symbols don't start with "_".)
