 ag0aep6g: Since implementing -c directly is more complicated with the recent
changes, can we emulate by using -lib and extracting the lib file's contents or
such?

Timothee, can you substitute -c with -lib in your use case? If so, we could fix the -od problem and make -c an explicitly unsupported switch like -o-.

ag0aep6g: There is now an outdated comment in rdmd:

// When building libraries, DMD does not generate object files.
// Instead, it uses the -od parameter as the location for the library file.
// Thus, override objDir (which is normally a temporary directory)
// to be the target output directory.

DMD will now use -c even with -lib. Was this something that changed due to your recent changes?

rdmd, not DMD

Another regression: issue 16978

Since there has been no reply from ag0aep6g for 5 days, I am going to revert that PR and add tests for the regressions. Then they or anyone else can have a go at it.
