I've actually been hit by this in one point release on Gentoo,
where I used dynamic linking for Dlang as soon as it was
possible. Programs would suddenly complain about a mismatch
between the size of some compiler generated item after a point
release update of dmd. Just posting this to give the
discussion a bit more substance. :)
