Use dynamic libraries.

Dub doesn't currently support them. Fortunately, the main project I've had 
to do this with is gtkd, which has no dependencies. The hack I used was:

* use git submodules instead of dub for the dependency
* update the dub script for gtkd to build dynamic libraries
* tell dub to use gtkd's library artifacts manually
* tell dub about the gtkd import paths manually
