Linker not working under dmd

[Adam D. Ruppe]

I had this problem too with the new dmd version on a CentOS 
server.

My solution was to link it manually. First, run your dmd command 
with -v at the end to get the verbose output. The last line it 
outputs will be the linking command.

Copy/paste that and find where it does the -l:phobos2 or whatever 
it exactly looks like. Delete it and instead use plain -lphobos2, 
no weirdo colon.

Then it should work. I changed my makefile to always compile and 
link separately on that box so I wouldn't have to worry about it 
later.

(i also had to recompile phobos on that box because the libc was 
too old for the qsort_r druntime now uses. If you have that 
problem too, let me know and I'll tell you what I did.)
