Finally got around to trying this out. I just filed <a href="http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=8889">Bug 8889</a>. Additionally, I keep running into issues where the VC linker insists on trying to link in shell32.lib. I tried commenting out the LIB line in sc.ini (which makes it so link can't find phobos64.lib without help either) and using the following command:<div>

The LIB line in sc.ini is commented out. Neither shell32.lib nor the directory it lives in appears in the linker command line output by DMD. However, according to grep phobos64.lib contains the string "shell32.lib". I'm not familiar with the .lib format, but does it allow for references to other object/library files that automatically get pulled in when linking a library?</font></div>
