Walter,

DMD 1 looks for libphobos.a whilst DMD 2 looks for libphobos2.a  This
has turned out to be a minor irritant for SCons.  Currently DMD 1 and
DMD 2 both have dmd, rdmd, etc. so the command names are all the same
yet the library name is different.  DMD 1 and DMD 2 could coexist --
which they cannot do currently -- if DMD 2 had dmd2, rdmd2, etc. with
libphobos2.a to match.
