OSX, we have a problem

Hi all, I'm posting here because I think we have a serious
problem. Long story short, Apple updated its linker, and many
binaries produced by DMD do not link anymore.

You can find a sample code here:
https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12754

All version of DMD are affected as far as I know.

I ran into the issue earlier with LLVM (in code generated by SDC)
but could solve it by updating LLVM. I'm unaware of what is the
commit that fixed thing. Because DMD is affected, I find myself
in the impossibility to bissect the thing (as I can't compile SDC
on the mac anymore).

This is an important issue and will affect OSX users in important
ways. That'd be great to have a task force around that issue.
