Thanks for the link.  It looks like Johannes Pfau took a stab at 
getting some minimal Android support into gdc a couple years 
back, with the handful of small patches listed here:

https://bitbucket.org/jpf/gdc/branch/android

Anyone get any farther than that?

Would it make sense to use dmd for linux/x86 to cross-compile to 
Android/x86 or is this a job for ldc/gdc only?
