Yes it works OK for gcc/g++, but the same version doesn't work for gdc.
(so there must be a change in gcc/g++ includes, that isn't for Phobos?)

Changing prefix to "c:/mingw/" makes all my other scripts choke though.
DESTDIR doesn't take kindly to weird characters like colons in the path.


So the best fix here would be if GDC could understand --prefix=/mingw 
too, and be relocatable even after using that (just like the other GCC)

And we still need to come up with some fix for gdmd, so that you can 
call it like "gdmd" - without needing any "gdmd.pl" suffix nonsense...
