Uuurrr... the gdc tool should use GCC standard options, and indeed fail
in DMD/GDMD/LDC style options.  If this is not the case we should raise
a bug report, create a unit test fail and add it into the code base.

I have to admit to not having tested GDC so much as it isn't 2.060
compatible as yet, and LDC is, so I am using the ldc tool for the
moment.

Thanks.
