I tried adding iOS support to GDC a year ago, but the arm--darwin target
is missing in gcc since 4.2.  It was turning into a lot of work to add
arm-darwin back into 4.8.

LDC has an advantage for targeting iOS since Apple uses and contributes
to LLVM.  Much of D works today on iOS (armv7) except TLS and issues
with getting correct "real" type when cross-compiling, though Kai has a
solution for that.
