They changed the references to LICENSE and README. Your best bet is probably to redownload minit.obj from the druntime repo to update it's modified date. In that case, the copy of minit.obj in git really should have its timestamp updated too, otherwise people are just going to keep running into this. (Or, as someone suggested, just remove the minit.obj depends on minit.asm from the makefile.)

Re: Can't run 'masm386'
minit.obj is still there. I commented this part: src\rt\minit.obj : src\rt\minit.asm $(CC) -c $(CFLAGS) src\rt\minit.asm That works.

Apperently, minit.asm isn't expected to change, so it's not expected that minit.obj will need to be rebuilt. At least that's what I was told. So what must have happened is the same as what happened to me: The timestamp on minit.asm was updated (or the file was inadvertantly changed). Or maybe minit.obj accidentally got deleted. Either way, make thinks minit needs to be rebuilt (which is not normally expected of minit), so it tries to, and it can't find masm386 (which doesn't come with DMD or DMC), so the error. So just: 1. Check that minit.obj still exists, and if not, grab it again. 2. Make sure the timestamp on minit.asm isn't newer than minit.obj 3. Make sure minit.asm didn't get changed.

No. Wasn't the whole point of supporting inline assembly directly in D to avoid these situations. It has been some time since I last looked at it, but IIRC there is no way to write minit.asm in D inline asm because it requires control over the name of its data sections in order to be able to »bracket« all the ModuleInfo references (so an array of all ModuleInfos can be reconstructed later).
