please please please build the libgphobos.a in release mode in the src & binary distribution.
So when people download and use gdc in the default mode, any program they build runs fast.

"release" is mostly about contracts (and not so much about speed),
but libgphobos.a *is* built for both - with the standard DFLAGS:
DFLAGS="-g -frelease -O2"
So this should not be a problem in a standard GDC 0.19 compile...
(I think that the Garbage Collection code does an exception, but)
