Regarding Bud, first you would have to build it using GPhobos, and then switch 
to Tango.

Both Bud and Rebuild will create all those object files; that's how they work. 
You could put the files in a global directory and use that directory as your 
library. Something like, /home/lars/tango/obj, and configure all your projects 
to use that path as obj output. I'm not doing that because I just thought of 
that idea, but I think it could work.

Someone once gave me this sh script to build a Tango library. I don't use it, 
but you could find it useful.

#!/bin/sh
rm obj/*.o libltango.a -v
export count=0; find tango -name "*.d" |while read a; do count=`expr $count + 
1`; gdc -ltango -c -o obj/$count.o -O2 -finline-functions -frelease 
-fversion=Posix $a 2>/dev/null && echo -n "$count-$a ° "; done
ar q libltango.a obj/*.o

I guess you wouldn't need Bud or Rebuild if you use the resulting library.
