I abandoned my "gdc" ebuild and instead just copied
the original gcc ebuild and augmented it with a specific
checkout of gdc from Github. This means that you can freely
slot it with your existing gcc installation(s) or replace it
entirely. This lets us work with it as if D was already
officially included in gcc.
Currently there is gcc 4.8.1 with front-end version 2.063.2.
gcc 4.8.2 will have the 2.064.2 integration.
Libraries compiled with gdc will be placed in the existing
version specific gcc directory
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.8.1/
to avoid collisions with the same .so files compiled with
other D compilers.
