This is an installation issue, not a bug.  What is happening is the compiler
can't find the object.di file which contains the base Object code.  You should
pay careful attention to the installation instructions at digitalmars.com, and
if you still have issues, ask questions on IRC or on the digitalmars newsgroup
here:

Could be the same problem as issue 2476, try the solution posted there.

Alright, the following change to dmd.conf did it.

DFLAGS=-I% P%/../src/phobos -I% P%/../src/druntime/import -L-L% P%/../lib

I don't mind if that is necessary now while it wasn't before. It's just that
the -I% P%/../src/druntime/import isn't documented in the downloaded docs, nor
in the installation doc under 

http://www.digitalmars.com/d/2.0/dmd-linux.html

(I grep'ped for src/druntime through all the 2.021 tree, and paid careful
attention to said web page.) 

So I'd consider this a bug in the documentation and the default dmd.conf. But
you're the boss...

D'oh!

My bad, it seems that the latest install of d 2 does not have the path
correctly in dmd.conf.  I'll reopen for you.

I'm sorry for my knee-jerk reaction.  The message you quote is quite common for
folks who did not follow the install instructions correctly, or decided to move
things around.
