yeah, but that's only for dmd (and you have to use that 
currently, due to a problem in the .mak file - see:

https://forum.dlang.org/post/winmkmwpjkicdjgtourj@forum.dlang.org

But for druntime, phobos and tools, the only option is the 'make 
-f win64.mak'.

I don't know why the dmd build has this 'option' of using 
/src/build.d

Ideally, it should just be one command to use for each component.
