Just finished building about 10 minutes ago :-)  I probably won't have free time 
to do the all-dub-packages test in the near future but can report that it plays 
fine with my 2.065-requiring libraries (hap.random and Dgraph), including 
working as dub dependencies.  (I haven't actually built dub itself with gdc yet.)

As usual speed seems on a par with LDC with the typical differences that GDC 
seems slightly ahead on raw number-crunching stuff and LDC seems ahead on 
template-heavy or range-based code (e.g. in hap.random, GDC optimizes the dice() 
function much better, but LDC seems ahead on the (Random)Sample class and on the 
range-based random distributions).
