This is very bad and we should consider a hotfix. Is someone
on it ?
FWIW, I'm using Debian/unstable and compiling
dmd/druntime/phobos directly from git HEAD, and it seems to
work fine.
Does this problem only happen for the shipped .deb packages?

I think it's not a problem for you, because your system's linker
probably adds fPIC by default when you're building druntime and
phobos. In contrast the binaries available on dlang.org/download
were probably built on machine that does not add -fPIC by default.
