yeah, the great thing. i was hit by that bus too, and had to
mutilate druntime to make unittests work again. lucky me, i'm
using static phobos. don't even want to think about the scale
of the disaster for people with libphobos2.so...
O.O
Like what will happen to us on Gentoo with libphobos2.so when
binutils-2.8 moves to stable here? And can it all be solved by
compiling with -fPIC, like is required for hardened
installations anyways or are there dmd versions that flat out
wont work any longer?
What, in half a year or more? :) I'd say we're safe.
