Actually, I'm wrong about this: I think that LDC is checking to 
see if a file called `ldc2.gcc --sysroot=/snap/ldc2/x1/bin/..` 
exists, and since it doesn't find one (!), it exits with an error 
message.

Anyway, same question -- is there any way of including flags to 
pass to gcc, or is it just the gcc command itself that can be 
specified?
