Please include an option to have all these libraries statically 
linked as well. Sometimes, it just happens that one really, 
really needs a completely self-contained binary.

Also, are there any remaining issues with D DLLs on Windows that 
may interfere with the shared library plan? I recall that there 
have been open issues for a long time, but I don't know how much 
is resolved now.
