hmm - isn't there a way to put it in the non-default category instead so that
someone trying to make it work doesn't need to hack configure?
and then just not build libphobos if d is not being built?
not a huge thing - better to get things building indeed than to agonise over
this ;)
I'd hope that we expect to get this going in 9.0 ? (I recall the observation at
the Cauldron that it ought to be not too too challenging).
