But that is linux. You can't say "phobos dll" because everyone 
then expects dlls to work on windows, which still isn't the case. 
Its correct that we have a shared library version of phobos on 
linux, but a shared library version of phobos on windows is still 
in the future. I'm currently working on it, but there are so many 
issues with the language design, the export keyword, the module 
level visibility system the unittests etc etc that its going to 
take some more time. Also the front end transition from C++ to D 
hits me hard also.
