Nevertheless having a linker written in D goes hand-in-hand with 
having a compiler written in D. I'd be interested in seeing his 
work. I'd also be interested in having something that's 
documented and that isn't bound by licensing issues.

We also have the abandoned DDL[1] project which had a linker that 
supports OMF, and Eric Anderton was nice enough to document his 
process of implementing it:
