I did it that way for dmd on Gentoo. And for ldc there is
already /opt/ldc2-<version>/lib{32,64}/
For distributions on which you can only install one system
wide D compiler at a time the rpath is not needed. On those
you'd have either a dmd, gdc or ldc environment with a
specific compiler and phobos version for all D software.
