I mean, DSSS was basically the standard build tool back in the D1 days. 
Unfortunately it's not maintained any more. One problem with DSSS was 
that it used its own copy of the DMD front end. This was before the 
compiler got the "-deps" swithc, which is what RDMD uses.

It doesn't help that the compiler is poorly designed/structured with no 
regard to support third party tools using the compiler as a library.
