Great to see a osx dmd! Thanks!

But! The new folder structure (./<OS>/bin/) is very unfortunate.

Installer scripts need to be rewritten and tutorials changed
all over the net.

Can't we have three release files, for windows, linux and osx?
It's the way every other program I've seen in my life does it.
This way the directory structure would be preserved.
The download volume would be reduced (linux user don't have to download 
the windows stuff etc.).
The users don't get confused by looking for the OS specific download.
The linux package can be a tar.gz file with executable bit set already.

*PLEASE* :)
