digitalmars.D - undefined reference to `rt_loadLibrary'

Hello,

I am trying to dynamically load a shared object using 
core.runtime.Runtime.loadLibrary. The link fails with a undefined 
reference to `rt_loadLibrary' error. Indeed when I `nm 
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libphobos2.a` I don't see it there. Is 
an extra lib needed?

OK after more googling I found that adding `dflags 
"-defaultlib=phobos2` to my dub.sdl file solves this problem.
