Fairly ornthogonal, except for potentially being in the same scripts, and 
possibly not even in the same scripts.  Not that I'm against the idea.  
I'm actually in favor of it.. downloading extra stuff I'll never use is 
pure waste.

This will make things work for this release. The downside is that it won't work if the user installs DMD manually by unpacking the archive at the right place, but if the next DMD release return to using "lib" the problem will be limited to manual downloads of DMD version 2.052, which shouldn't be too bad.
