With a deimos header file, I expect to need only to pass the dpath to it 
and the library it references to dmd, e.g.

stuff
  - deimos
   - python
    - Python.d

dmd <otherstuff> -Istuff -L-lpython2.7

I should not need to actually pass stuff/deimos/python/Python.d to dmd.

Unfortunately, that is currently not the case, and I am having a 
difficult time trying to figure out what is getting in my way.

been thumbing through nm output lately.


Anyone have any suggestions?

Found one little gotcha.

In a templated function in my header file, I make a call to enforce. 
When the function is not called [instantiated], all is well. When the 
function is called, it generates yon undefined reference to __ModuleInfoZ.

I guess this is because D needs a pointer to the module in order to look 
up enforce?

What does the call to enforce look like? The error isn't from the 
compiler so you are pulling in a symbol which isn't in your 
object files.

here is an older file, as I haven't committed recently, but it shows the 
identical call:

https://bitbucket.org/ariovistus/pyd/src/364451b5d732/infrastructure/python/python.d#cl-653

making a call to enforce elsewhere doesn't fix the linker problem.
