That's necessary and expected for druntime. Each compiler is going to have its 
own version of druntime, so you _need_ GDC's version of druntime. However, at 
least in theory, Phobos should be the same across compilers. I don't know what 
GDC is currently doing though. Regardless, if you're using another version of
Phobos, you're going to need to build it against GDC's version of druntime.
