Is that intentional? In my opinion this is a pretty central topic which 
should appear in the sub-menu "D Reference".

Oh, that needs some overhaul, but I don't think we should release it 
before we have the high-level wrapper.

Why do we need a high-level wrapper? Whats wrong with doing a library on 
a level similar to phobos? Afaik we don't have any other page describing 
how to compile a library into a .so on linux or how to link against the 
shared version of phobos.

(P.S. didn't you get my mails?)

Because it means the support if finished and stable, unlike the Window 
DLL documentation which tells people what internal runtime functions to 
use to make an incomplete DLL support work a little.
