I think the root of the problem is that it's not easy to setup things so that DMD, druntime, Phobos, and DMD's test suite are compiled together.

For my own use, I made an Xcode project that does all that (with some scripting that invokes the makefiles), but it took me some time to setup things. Perhaps what we need is a repository which would contain all those repositories (linked as submodules) along with the necessary code to make everything build. That way you can just clone that integration repository and compile everything in one go (and run all the tests) with no hassle. Perhaps I should create one...
