My few comments.
I think dmd should be packaged as dmd-2. At least for a Debian repo I 
couldn't find any way to store two versions for the same package.
Isn't Phobos more source than headers though, I mean the only "header" it 
has is object.di and I don't even know why.
Is it important to have a compiler specific -dev? I realize compilers 
don't like getting along, but what happens when phobos becomes a shared 
library? I thought object files were suppose to be more "universal," 
doesn't libc6 work when using Digital Mars C++ compilers or does it have 
its own?
Otherwise the tree looks fine.
