[phobos] Makefile

[Lars Tandle Kyllingstad]

I am experiencing some problems with the new makefile.


Firstly, the location of libdruntime.a is specified as

     DRUNTIME = $(DRUNTIME_PATH)/lib/libdruntime.a

while I believe it should be

     DRUNTIME = $(DRUNTIME_PATH)/libdruntime.a

Secondly, when I just enter 'make', DMD complains that it can't find 
object.d.  I have to run

     make -f GNUmakefile OS=posix BUILD=debug DFLAGS=-I../druntime/import

to make it work.  It seems DMD isn't receiving the druntime imports 
directory by default.
