Because of the general instability of OPTLINK, I request that dmd should be
able to generate object files consumable by other linkers. OPTLINK is the only
OMF linker I've found capable to link dmd's output.

Possible targets include the Microsoft linker (supports COFF) or the GNU linker
(supports both COFF and ELF on Windows).

dmd already has an Linux and a MacOSX backend, both with different object file
formats; this can't be a too unrealistic feature request.
