Could be due to things like static module constructors or 
typeinfos. There *are* problems with things getting intertwined 
and not being considered dead by the linker, but it does try.

The proof of it is hello world being 150 KB instead of the 6 MB 
or so it would be if it carried all of the dead code from phobos 
too.
