Release 3.03 (build #2371) is now available 20 Sep 2006 
URL: http://www.dsource.org/projects/build 

Change Log Summary
------------------
** FIX: Ticket #33 For unix editions, 'pthread' is now a default library,
'-g' is used instead of '/co' to generate debug data, '-o ' is used instead
of '-of', and spaces are placed in between consecutive '-L' switches. Note
that if you want to place library files on the command line, you still have
to include the '.a' file suffix. 

** FIX: Ticket #34 For GNU, 'gdc' is the default linker, the library switch
is now '-L-l', 'gphobos' is used instead of 'phobos', and the makefile
includes the '-version=BuildVerbose' switch. 

** FIX: Ticket #35 It is now possible to use relative paths on the command
line files. 

** FIX If you use the '-od' switch then the '-op' switch is not used. 

** CHG: Ticket #36 The default name for the executable is now 'bud', but
you can change it to anything you like. 

** CHG: Ticket #37 Changed defaults to support GDC out-of-the-box. 

** ENH The utility now also checks for a '[darwin]' section in the
Configuration File. 

** ENH The utility now supports the import syntax that was introduced with
DMD v0.163. 

** ENH The distribution now includes example configuration files for a
number of environments. 

** ENH The Configuration File now supports a new FINAL command that allows
you to run jobs after a successful build.


There are a number of example configuration files now distributed with the
source. Please select the one closest to your own environment and tweak as
needed if you are having problems with the 'default' settings. If you can't
get it to run using the compiler/linker/librarian of your choice after
trying the configuration files, please let me know.

Note that the distributed Windows executable files have been compressed
with UPX. This shouldn't be an issue but I thought you might like to know.
