Currently, using slashes in DMD paths works in a cross-platform manner
everywhere except for the -of argument. The latter gets passed verbatim to
OPTLINK, which can only handle backslashes.

This is quite annoying because it needs special cases in for cross-platform,
cross-compiler build systems, see e.g.
https://github.com/apache/thrift/blob/trunk/aclocal/ax_dmd.m4#L68.
