Mike,

Thanks for picking up on this and helping out. Much appreciated.

I took a different tack and so these investigations are no longer
possible. Sorry.

Sponditious. But it does mean they need to be stored in a place that is
GDC compiler specific.

OK, I took this as impetus to delete the old installation as being
unsound and start again.  I built a LDC (ldc2) version and put the
install in an LDC specific location so I can also do GDC and DMD
installs. This version worked entirely fine.

Thus the problem must have been an incomplete or improper build
originally.

Sorry for the noise. However it has been helpful as I know know more
about GtkD :-)

Sadly, QtD would be more generally useful since Qt is easier to install
on OS X and Windows than Gtk and I need to be cross-platform.

Now I just need to amend the SCons D tool to take all the source code in
at once rather than generate individual .o files…
