Thank you, Benjamin.
It took me almost an hour to compile the GDC following your 
guidelines (on Dell:i7, 8G RAM, Win8-64), but ended with an error 
not being able to find GMP, which was actually in src folder. The 
build script must have looked somewhere else. I'll try tomorrow 
to fix it.

Anyway, I have noticed the GDC repository 
https://github.com/venix1/GDC is used in your guidelines.
What is the basic difference between this one and the one of Iain 
at https://github.com/D-Programming-GDC/GDC that seems to be 
updated more recently? Is it possible to build GDC on Windows 
from the Iain's repository's trunk at all?

Cheers,
Ludovit
