Sounds about right.  There are a couple heavy modules that 
instantiate tens of thousands of functions when building phobos 
unittests.

There's 'make install'.  I probably wouldn't prune anything 
copied during that recipe, as you'll lose integration with C, C++ 
and LTO compilers if any of those components are missing.

You'll need to implement DSO handling on Darwin, there's a little 
bit of compiler support code, and the rest is in the library.  
I've got a patch somewhere with maybe 90% of the work done.  From

works.
