A program compiled with DMD does not generate the code coverage report file if 
the program is not run from the same directory as the source 
file(s).

For instance, this works:

    ~/test$ dmd -cov test.d && ./test
    ~/test$ ls *.lst
    test.lst

This does not output the coverage listing:

    ~/test/sub$ dmd -cov test.d
    ~/test/sub$ cd ..
    ~/test$ ./sub/test.d
    ~/test$ find . -name '*.lst'
    ~/test$

This attempt at a workaround works, but produces unhelpful 
listing filenames:

    ~/test/sub2$ dmd -cov ../sub1/test.d -of../sub1/test
    ~/test/sub2$ ../sub1/test
    ~/test/sub2$ ls *.lst
    zsh: no matches found: *.lst
    ~/test/sub2$ find . -name '*.lst'
    ./..-sub1-test.lst
