Currently, dmd simply looks for libphobos.a

I suggest changing it to:

   lib32/libphobos.a    for -m32
   lib64/libphobos.a    for -m64
I assume that that's within the file hierarchy in the zip file? The correct directories for those varies from distribution to distribution if you're talking about /lib, /usr/lib, or /usr/local/lib. Some distros have lib for 32-bit and 64-bit. Others do lib for 64-bit and lib32 for 32-bit. However, any that have both lib32 and lib64 are going to have lib as well with either lib being a symlink to one of the other two or one of the other two being a symlink to lib.

And on OS X, multiple architectures are generally merged in the same library/executable file as a 
"fat" or "universal" binary. Use the command "lipo" to create one.

A naming change like this would break D for Xcode. So I'll have to release a new version 
and to keep it backward compatible for those who stick with older versions of DMD I'd 
have some detection job to do. On the other hand, creating a fat library using 
"lipo" wouldn't cause any disruption...


Doing 64 bit OSX is a bit down the road. I don't think Linux supports such fat libraries.
