Apart from the

    > bad relocation section name `.rel.gnu.linkonce.t_d_new?'

which I luckily don't have on my Debian, the dhry.d
sample needs minor fixing:

add (at the beginning):

    import time;

and replace (at the end):

 q = (double)GetTickCount() * 1.0e-03;

    with

 q = (double)clock() * 1.0e-03;


Cheers,
Sz.

Apparently, I had put on the web site the wrong libphobos.a. Try downloading it again.

dhry.d needs a little updating <g>.

Thanks!

I downloaded the new compiler to my RH9 machine, it fixed by "bad relocation section" warning.

Thanks!

Bliss!!! It works.

BTW, I really like D!
This is only the second time I feel at home with a language.
(The first time was back in '83, when I finally got Turbo Pascal
for my Kaypro-II CP/M machine -- both of which I still have.)

Thanks to Luna Kid, that too works now!

I uploaded a fix for that as well. I had it in my linux test suite, but had forgotten to update the distribution directory.
