This possibly doesn't belong on the Phobos mailing list, but rdmd is in the Phobos repo, so...

The rdmd executable which is bundled with DMD (on Linux, at least) was built in September.  Since then, there have been two commits.  One of them fixes bug 3314, the other allows rdmd to be run on OSX.

Can we have a new build of rdmd in the next release?

Or even better, can rdmd be automatically rebuilt for each DMD release?

The rdmd in osx/bin is newer.  I sent the binary to Walter when I fixed it to work on OSX.  If it could be built on every release that would be ever better though.

That would be great, and relatively easy to do. But I don't know where the build should take place. Perhaps in dmd's build?
