It's not so simple, because VisualD attempts to override the paths in the
config files, it gets complicated and I have no clear view where the paths
used actually come from.
The reason is, it's common to have many versions of Visual Studio installed
in parallel on the same machine, so while working with VisualD, the
libs+linker that DMD should be using is the one that belongs to the *active
VS environment*; sc.ini should be ignored, it is only configured for one
particular VS upon installation, so it's wrong every time you change
environment (often).

Perhaps the problem here is that sc.ini isn't being ignored; it seems to be
configured to point to VS2010...
...yes, seems to be the case. I amended my sc.ini file to point to the
VS2012 stuff and it works much better. Only one link error:

1>libcpmtd.lib(stdthrow.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol
_CrtDbgReportW referenced in function "void __cdecl
std::_Debug_message(wchar_t const *,wchar_t const *,unsigned int)"
(?_Debug_message at std@@YAXPEB_W0I at Z)

Strange.. I wonder where that's supposed to come from :/

So, VisualD should be ignoring sc.ini as I understand it, but it seems that
it's not... Rainer?
