D.gnu - Can libgphobos be built as a shared object?

Statically linking in libgphobos.a makes every executable at least 600K. For an
embedded system with limited storage this can be a problem. Is there a way to
set it up to be used as a .so instead?

I believe you'll have to exclude phobos/internal/cmain.d from the library and call the setup routines in phobos/internal/dgccmain2.d manually. I've never tried it, but that should work in theory. Sean
