As far as I understand gdc/ldc problem the way it currently works 
there is no difference between .di and .d files - if function is 
not a template its binary is expected to be found in matching 
object file - and if that object file belongs to prebuild static 
lib it is completely out of question, even if the sources are 
completely available.

I have never understood exactly what in frontend makes it that 
much of a problem though
