I just had the same problem today. I opened a thread in the GDC 
newsgroup to see if this can be rectified ( 
news://news.digitalmars.com:119/l1q33o$2m6i$1@digitalmars.com ) as even 
on the GDC website there is no such info.

But regardless, http://dlang.org/download should be updated as well. I 
agree on the point that is quite beneficial to D to have this 
information tidied up and better presented for new (and existing) D 
users. (even I took a while to figure out that I needed TDM-GCC in 
addition to the GDC packages in 
https://bitbucket.org/goshawk/gdc/downloads - and it's an installation 
procedure I've done in the past as well, but had forgotten).
