Looked into this further, I added a line to the post install to remove
thread.di. However, when attempting to duplicate by installing 2.065
first, and then 2.067 over the top, it appears that installing over an
old version doesn't actually leave thread.di behind. I think possibly
this happened because I got a new mac and copied the files from my old
mac, but I don't think this would be a normal cause for concern.
I do still think a pre-install script of rm -rf /usr/share/dmd would be
better. But I don't know if it's warranted.
