Based on previous posts you've made, it seems you already know 
that Martin's solution involves having DMD's back end add linux 
style ctors/dtors to the COMDAT section of every compiled D file, 
so I'm not sure what you mean by this.

If a callback provided to _dyld_register_func_for_add_image does 
not call sections_osx_onAddImage, then it must be called somehow.
