This is what I feared.

The real awkwardness here is that Dub stores all the compilation
products nicely separated by platform, compiler, and configuration, and
puts the last build in a nice named place on the assumption there will
only ever be one. So generally the   
~/.dub/packages/foo-1.0.0 has to be moved as above.

Using unit-threaded as an example:

~/.dub/packages/unit-threaded-0.7.24/unit-threaded/.dub/build/library-debug-linux.posix-x86_64-ldc_2073-1AF38A4B25224ABFB5BB5ED68A0E4633

Is the location of the last debug build on linux using ldc2, but what
is that hash code, how to make that deducible so that it isn't
necessary to move, just build.
