I am wondering if there is any way to define constants to pass to the compiler like in C (especially useful in combination with Makefiles, for obvious reasons), i.e.:
My preference is to make an app.config module that lists these things as variables (or enums) in ordinary D code. Then tell users to edit that file to customize their build. (wp_config.php does this and people are reasonably happy with it. You could even write a little creation app if you wanted to avoid plain editing the file. Like makeconfig PREFIX="/usr/local" and it writes out the config.d file.)
