Largely because some of my issues with Phobos are fairly low-level, and
I wanted to attempt building a "better" standard library from the ground
up. I've considered having Phobos run on top of Ares in a compatibility
area, but as I don't actually use Phobos for anything it would be a lot
of work for very little return. Beginning with the next release I'll
probably ship a pre-built Linux library just as I'm doing for Windows.
It's really just a matter of automating the Linux build process a bit
better--I have the whole process down to a single batch file on Windows.
