Yes, since it is copyrighted. However, I *can* read documentation about 
the compiler (one cannot copyright an idea, ideas are covered by patent 
law, not copyrights).

Aside from working with the LLVM source, I am happy to help out in any 
way I can those who want to integrated the D front end with LLVM.

One advantage LLVM has over gcc is that gcc is reluctant to include gdc 
as part of the default gcc distribution. If LLVM is willing to include D 
with their main distribution, that would be very good for D users.
