Using V1.030's phobos.lib instead of V1.066, the "hello world" exe size is
116KB, so the issue is all about phobos.lib

Using V1.068, the original size of phobos.lib is 1545KB, trying rewrite
win32.mak(using lib.exe to make phobos.lib) to get new phobos.lib is 951KB, the
"hello world" exe size is 123KB
