For the time being, the difference between dllobjects/libobjects and objects
with the D compiler, must be handled by the programmer, no extra flags are
needed when compiling/linking. Thus I want to alias dllobject/libobject to
object. But aap keep telling me that it don't know how to create libobject/
dllobject from foo.d. I have created a route:
:route {default} d object,dllobject,libobject
    compile

I've tried with actions:
:action compile dllobject d
    etc

and

:action compile object,default,dllobject d
    etc

It works fine to compile objects for a program, but not libs or dlls. I
guess
I need to support i through the tool file.

If I were to do it through tools, I would have to add
D_DLL_COMPILE_ACTION, etc, right? I want all possibilities to
be available, after all.
