Ah. It looks like it's happening because std.exception uses std.datetime in its unit tests. Well, hopefully the same trick that std.file and std.stdio use should work with std.process as well. It would be really nice though to be able to just somehow mark one or both of the static constructors or modules to indicate that the initialization order doesn't matter (or to tell it which order to use if that's a better solution). I'll have a pull request with an attempted solution up shortly, but someone with a Mac is going to have to test it. - Jonathan M Davis _______________________________________________ phobos mailing list [email protected] http://lists.puremagic.com/mailman/listinfo/phobos
