What does `which gdc` print? If it says something like "which: no 
gdc in ...", there is a problem with the installation of GDC. 
Otherwise, you can use the following as a quick workaround:

     sudo ln -s `which gdc` /usr/local/bin/gdc

The proper solution is to find out why gdmd insists on using that 
non-existing path instead of relying on $PATH lookup, and fix it.
