Thanks!

I tried integrating it into my scripts as an rdmd replacement. 
Currently, the following are missing:

- -od (e.g. for -od.)
- --build-only should imply -od.
- No --main, though that can probably be substituted with -main
- The .d extension is not implied, like for dmd/rdmd

Also, --pass is weird. Why not use the standard-ish -- ?

Was there a problem with the idea of forking rdmd? The above plus 
things like its -lib support would then not be needed to be 
reimplemented.
