I haven't tried in a fresh VM, but that all works for me on Debian 
testing x64. I made sure no DMD was on my path and did this:

$ which dmd
$ mkdir test
$ cd test

$ git clone --quiet -b v2.066.1 --depth=1 
git://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd.git dmd-2.066.1

$ git clone --quiet -b v2.066.1 --depth=1 
git://github.com/D-Programming-Language/druntime.git druntime-2.066.1

$ git clone --quiet -b v2.066.1 --depth=1 
git://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos.git phobos-2.066.1

$ cd dmd-2.066.1
$ make -f posix.mak
$ cd ../druntime-2.066.1
$ make -f posix.mak DMD=../dmd-2.066.1/src/dmd
$ cd ../phobos-2.066.1
$ make -f posix.mak DMD=../dmd-2.066.1/src/dmd 
DRUNTIME_PATH=../druntime-2.066.1

Any difference from the make arguments you used? What OS?
