Yes, so?
If I remember correctly, there's an option to make DMD compile multiple
files at once and emit separate object files (although gdc doesn't have
this, and I think this feature would be most useful for gdc), and the D
frontend is so fast that no one really cares how long it takes to parse the
files a few times. Better yet, parallelize the build.
