Is it an issue of ldmd2 object file output or tweak required from rdmd side?

(rdmd build from 2.063.2 tag, ldc 0.11.0)

I think that is a rdmd thing. DMD creates non-existent
directories when writing object files, gdc and ldc don't.

Arguably, ldmd2 should behave exactly the same as DMD, though – in fact, that's its whole raison d'être.

Anyway, I have never experienced that problem on my local machine, and at least on OS X, where I just checked it, "ldc2 -of some_random_directory/result result.d" indeed creates some_random_directory.

Please create a bug report on GitHub with your operating system details (some Linux flavor?) so we have all the information in one place.
