digitalmars.D - Linker error while building phobos on linux on a fresh system

Apparently the command line that causes the problem is:

Argh, I had an old ~/dmd.conf. I've mentioned this before: our build 
process should override all user options and only use its own artifacts. 
I sent a diff a while ago adding an empty dmd.conf to phobos/, but there 
was backlash about it that I find unjustified.

It needs to be fixed on DMD side and not via Phobos workarounds 
in my opinion. For example, by ignoring -defaultlib flag if it 
can't be found and trying to link anyway.

Yeah, I'd expect the empty dmd.conf to be part of dmd and not 
Phobos, but I do agree that we need something like that.
