Yea, I looked at gdc vs. dmd and Phobos vs. Tango.  I really get hit on all 
sides...

I'd like to use dmd, because it's got better support.  Also, I'm interested 
in the fuller library in Tango.  But, I'm constrained by what I'd like to 
do.

At some point, I'd like to make plugins for Tcl, and that means building a 
.dll.  From my experience that can work through gdc, but not in dmd.  Maybe 
that has changed?

Thanks,
Ned
