If by "correct" you mean the latest and greatest in terms of 
language and library features, then that means DMD. GDC doesn't 
have the sort of manpower behind that gcc and g++ benefit from. 
As I understand it, the version that ships with GCC was further 
hampered by being locked in quite some time ago due to the GCC 
release cycle.

You have three D compilers to choose from. Use the one that meets 
your needs. They all can put out compatible binary output on any 
given platform.
