           Summary: allow spaces after switches
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: x86_64
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P1
         Component: DMD

For dmd 2.065 switches taking arguments do not follow the gdc style where white space between the switch and its argument is allowed.  For example, this is NOT currently allowed in dmd:

  dmd -c foo.org -of foo.o

Instead we must execute:

  dmd -c foo.org -offoo.o
