If you do have any troubles installing, please let me know. I want to try to 
keep it as easy as possible.

The standard build system used does require xfbuild or rebuild ATM, but 
that's only because the rdmd included with D1 is still out-of-date and has a 
certain blocking bug that was fixed in trunk a few months ago. If you really 
don't want to use xfbuild or rebuild, you *probably* can get the latest 
trunk rdmd and change the build scripts to call stbuild with "-tool:rdmd" 
instead of "-tool:xf" or "-tool:re".
