Can't run 'masm386', check PATH
Error: 'dmc' not found
I know that I've seen this before, but I can't remember how to fix the
problem. dmc is definitely on my PATH (I successfully built dmd prior to
trying to build druntime), so the error seems to be wrong, for whatever good
that does me. I don't see a masm386 with dmc, so I don't know where that
comes from. Maybe that's part of the problem.
Has anyone seen this problem and figured out how to get around it or fix it?

I've actually had a go at rebuilding druntime recently for dub.
This is one of the things I HATE the state of.
masm386 based upon what I read from the NG is a compiler written for
16bit and hence not runnable on 32bit Windows.
You will find however minit.obj in the repo along with minit.asm.
You shouldn't need to recompile minit.asm.
