Hi Iain,

 From `dmd --help`:

 -of=<filename>    name output file to <filename>

 From `gdmd --help` (v14.2.0):

 -offilename    name output file to filename

Is this discrepancy fixed in later versions?
Or will this discrepancy be fixed in a future release?

Sorry, can’t really check it myself. The GNU infrastructure keeps 
dropping packages from the IP ranges of my ISP again and again 
(like in `-j DROP`, not `-j REJECT`). I no longer bother visiting 
their website just to see it waste my time with a timeout.

Also, `gdmd` seems to require the user to supply separate `-od` 
to allow the user to place the object file in the directory from 
`-of`, while `dmd` and `ldmd2` seem to do so automatically.

Hi,

This wrapper script isn't part of GCC.
