A shared phobos library will not solve the ODR problem, because TypeInfo 
for instances of class or struct templates will still be generated into 
every binary that instantiates them if they do not happen to be 
instantiated by phobos itself.

I'm undecided whether these could be treated as different 
classes/structs even if they have the same name. Also considering 
possible different memory layout due to different compile options: 
welcome to DLL hell.
