Hi John,

at least you need the patch from this pull request 
https://github.com/gentoo/dlang/pull/14 to compile(!) 0.15.1 with 
LLVM 3.6.
In order to get a working ldc you also need this commit: 
https://github.com/ldc-developers/ldc/commit/d1e764cec1788f4c3f3d09045b8adb8dc9c0d857.

You would touch more than 40 files with both patch sets. I think 
it is better to spent the effort to test 0.15.2-beta2.

(I try to release 0.15.2 soon.)

Regards,
Kai
