LDC2 has a way to go before being D2 ready, gdc is far further along. 
 From what I can gather, the following should compile ldc, druntime and 
phobos, it seems (very) broken currently though - best to get in touch 
with the guy working on it - I have a feeling he's using an old version 
of druntime.

hg clone https://bitbucket.org/prokhin_alexey/ldc2
cd ldc2
git clone https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/druntime
git clone https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos
ccmake .
# type c, aet D_VERSION and RUNTIME_DIR, type c, set PHOBOS2_DIR,
# type c, type g
make phobos2
