I'm not sure exactly what you mean about "integrated runtime".

Looking in /usr/share/dmd/lib, I see phobos as a static library (which I'm  
assuming includes druntime, which I don't see anywhere). If the runtime is  
linked as a static library, shouldn't it be able to link to a dynamic  
library and just work?

I think a separate runtime is what I was expecting.
