-L+libpath\ does not work if you also want to pass resource or def file. 
-L always appends the arguments to the end of the command line, but the 
library paths must be added before the ',' that separates libraries and 
resource file.

Actually, that paragraph is out of date, because Visual D can now call 
optlink separately and will do this if you have specified additional 
library paths.
