Since this spring I had issues when after linking my dmd-compiled 
program with libjpeg the result was reported to have something 
like
Gen:Trojan.Heur.GM.0444140020
by several different antiviruses, including BitDefender, Comodo 
and F-Secure but not including Avast.
What's interesting, when scanning the app without libjpeg linked 
in, it shows clean. When scanning libjpeg object file (which gets 
linked) it is clean too. But when the two are linked together 
antiviruses go mad.

Example of scan:
