I discovered this last night while playing around with the 
raytrace performance issue a few threads back. I noticed that 
Derelict was being built without -noboundscheck so I put the flag 
in to see what if anything would happen.

The difference is from a few kilobytes per lib to a few megabytes 
per lib, so it's a drastic increase and it takes a lot more time 
to build. This may be something that should be investigated 
further.
