Phobos "inadequate"? Linux output "bloated"? etc.

On http://www.digitalmars.com/d/dcompiler.html it reads:

"The phobos D runtime library is inadequate."

In which way is Phobos "inadequate"? Will it be "fixed"? If so, how?
When? ;-)
And what about the other bugs:
- The compiler sometimes gets the line number wrong on an error.
- The phobos D runtime library is inadequate.
- Need to write a tool to convert C .h files into D imports.
- Array op= operations are not implemented.
- In preconditions and out postconditions for member functions are not
inherited.
- It cannot be run from the IDDE.

And what about the Linux bugs, listed on the same page?
- -g is only implemented for line numbers, not local symbols, because I
haven't figured out how to do it yet. gdb still works, though, at the
global symbol level.
- The code generator output has not been tuned yet, so it can be bloated.
Shared libraries cannot be generated.
- The exception handling is not compatible with the way g++ does it.
I don't know if this is an issue or not.
