Am developing MS application using D via Wine.  Is working pretty good.  However, I get a stderr message:

      err:dbghelp_msc:codeview_process_info Unknown CODEVIEW signature ...

during the throw of an Exception subclass which is being caught and the application is running blissfully on.

Is the dbghelp a Wine feature or a D Phobos feature? I seem to get hits searching for dbghelp both ways.

I am using the -g flag in the DMD compile, did not think -gc was appropriate???

Yes - I realize developing D for MS via Wine is "crazy" - its a long story.

I have a question related to that use of Wine: did you considered using a cross compiler like mingw-gcc and if so what were the advantages of wine over it?

Would rather use MS-W version of D to write D application for MS-W.
When I get another MS-BOX can then develop directly on it.

Windows DMD works pretty good under Wine.
