So, I downloaded and unzipped the gdc-4.8.1 sources from ftp.gnu.org, and then:

   ./setup-gcc.sh ../gcc-4.8.1/
   cd ..
   mkdir objdir
   cd objdir
   ../gcc-4.8.1/configure --enable-languages=d --disable-multilib
--enable-checking=release --prefix=/opt/gdc
   make -j2 2>&1 | tee build.log

... worked fine.  Perhaps time to update the Debian/Ubuntu instructions on the
GDC wiki?  I'll happily do this myself if I can have access.
