I'd also like to see the tests being run from a D program (hey, rdmd is 
supposed to be used like a script language, so it should be up to the 
task). The ddmd-project has started building the test suite with such a 
tool recently, but I think it does not have make functionality yet.

That's already pretty cool to have. A few thoughts:

- I think the svn-revisions of the checkouts would be helpful
- to avoid too many identical builds, it should not rebuild if there are 
no changes to the repositories.
- I'd like the most recent tests per platform to be separated a little 
from the rest, so you can immediately see the current status.
