Hi,

Joseph made mention that there isn't a readme documenting where
changes to d/dmd, libphobos/libdruntime, and libphobos/src should go.

I hope this clears things up.  OK for trunk?

This sort of patch is clearly covered by D maintainership.

OK. Thought it best to wait before committing, as the content is not
meant for myself to understand.
