I've just tried another potential source of error, which occurs 
when generating (not linking) the static LTO library. That 
requires generating the static lib with LDC (`-lib`), as it uses 
LLVM's librarian/archiver with bitcode support. When using MS 
lib.exe, I get that LNK1107 error you've mentioned (with an 
object file prefix in the error msg though, unlike your example). 
So VisualD might use the MS librarian unconditionally in your 
case...
