Suppose I made a dmd distribution with my libraries pre-packaged 
(I already have libraries for most the stuff you listed)... would 
that work for you? Or must it come from the dlang.org site and be 
`std.` for it to count?

I have no interest whatsoever in being in the official standard 
library though. Of course, using my libs is pretty trivial... 
download one or two files and add them to your build command, 
done.
