Another attempt via https://github.com/Dicebot/TestDlangAggregated

(also http://forum.dlang.org/post/lzbgsrrcpjiwmexcgpyy@forum.dlang.org)

Outlining some differences:

1) use of git 1.8.2+ feature of bounding submodule to remote branches for
simple updating to HEAD
2) providing top-level script (dlang.d) for managing typical tasks without much
investigation
3) installing toolchain into single ./bin folder inside same repo which can be
added to system PATH to immediately start using new stuff
4) stated goal for moving meta-tools from tools repo to meta-repo and replacing
makefiles with D scripts for better cross-platform development experience
