And if _that_ doesn't work, DMD then MD5 hashes the symbol, in which
case you lose the info, unless it stores that in a separate object
section.

Unfortunately, while this mechanism solves the "symbol too long"
errors, OPTLINK still crashes with too many fixups in one object,
making things like Pyd all but unusable with DMDWin..
