#3 Phobos should also be built as a shared library by default

[Anonymous]

Phobos is only build as a static library right now. Both static and shared libraries should be build by default if possible. (--disable-shared,--disable-static,... in other cases).

This basicly blocks (GDC package split):

Developers would install gdc, gdc-phobos (shared library) and gdc-phobos-devel (static + headers).

Users with a couple of D applications would only have to install gdc-phobos (shared library) due to D application packages having a dependency for it.

This will also require Phobos to be microversioned, to avoid breakage.
(i.e. the shared .so library should be versioned properly, to match)

Not sure Phobos/Tango as shared libraries are desired, before stable ?
(not sure if Phobos is even binary stable between e.g. 1.007 and 1.009)

But I'll package to match the tarballs.
