Damn.  I *knew* that.  I remember reading about it when linux was 
getting shared lib support.

Oh good.  Then what I actually want is for -betterC to be cleaned up and 
renamed (and Documented!), add compiler flags for no exceptions, no 
Object, and a way to turn the silent and link failures into compiler errors.



1) array concats. use the module memory.d instead (link failure)
2) module constructors and destructors (silent failure)
3) looping ModuleInfo without libc or bare metal (silent failure)
4) TLS variables. always use __gshared (runtime crash)
5) threads.
6) unittests (silent failure)
