Nothing. DMD automatically links with Phobos.lib when you compile your 
app. But it does not automatically compile and link any non-Phobos 
modules you import unless you explicitly pass them on the command line, 
as you have done. There's a tool that ships with dmd, called rdmd, that 
will do what you want if you use it in place of dmd.
