It may be that your -I is one level too deep? Looks like it ^^. In 
general you're likely to get a faster response over at the Tango forums, 
or the IRC channel, since that's where we spend most of our time :)

Yes, that was it.

Now the linker can't find phobos:

$ /tools/bin/dmd -L-L/tools/SRC/tango/lib/libphobos.a -I/tools/SRC/tango
ttango.d
gcc ttango.o -o ttango -m32 -lphobos -lpthread -lm -Xlinker
-L/tools/SRC/tango/lib/libphobos.a
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.6/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld:
cannot find -lphobos
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
--- errorlevel 1
$ file /tools/SRC/tango/lib/libphobos.a
/tools/SRC/tango/lib/libphobos.a: current ar archive

So phobos is there... but why the error?

Because it can't find the library specified by -lphobos. just like it says?
Try dropping the '/libphobos.a' from the -L. -L is for specifying the 
*directory* to look for libraries, not the library itself.
