# The distutils.ccompiler module doesn't allow the runtime addition of compiler
# classes that live outside the distutils package, and of course it doesn't
# recognize the D language and its associated compilers by default.
#
# This module hot-patches distutils.ccompiler to overcome those limitations.
#
# To apply these changes, the setup.py file for extension modules written in D
# should execute the following import statement:
#   from celerid import patch_distutils
