This will make things work for this release. The downside is that it won't work if the user installs DMD manually by unpacking the archive at the right place, but if the next DMD release return to using "lib" the problem will be limited to manual downloads of DMD version 2.052, which shouldn't be too bad.

That's a fairly good suggestion. It makes things more robust, and it's exactly what I made my installer do in the end (see D for Xcode, version 1.2.2 released today).

But I still hope the "lib32" folder goes back to its original name "lib" soon so unpacking the archive manually will work too with the symlinks installed in /usr/local.
