Helloworld fails to link on Debian

[Sebastien Alaiwan via D.gnu]

$ cat hello.d
import std.stdio;

int main()
{
   writefln("Hello, world");
   return 0;
}

$ gdc hello.d
/usr/bin/ld: /tmp/cc03E6ZO.o: relocation R_X86_64_PC32 against

Workaround #1: add "-no-pie" to the command line
Workaround #2: add "-funittest" to the command line (!)

It seems that libphobos isn't compiled with options (-fPIC) 
compatible with default binutils linker requirements.
