You will have to investigate some more if you are really annoyed by
this.  If you can see which DOS calls are made that reference drive
D:, this would help understand which part of `ld' makes these calls.
`ld' is built from a few very large libraries, and it is very hard to
guess where exactly is drive D: referenced without some hints.

Btw, does this happen with `ld' only, or with other DJGPP programs as
well?
