Okay, so what are you saying about the extra LLVM build time? Perhaps
I misread; are you saying that LDC doesn't currently have CI of that
nature at all?

So, Android target works, but iOS not so much?
What would you say is outstanding in Android front? Just passing CI?
Is there druntime work to do? I suspect platform integration is
scarce?
Does Android x86 work? This is often used during debugging where I work.

I've seen iOS toolchains appear from time to time, I guess the
standard build can't emit iOS code though?
