One thing that'd be good is an integrated makefile right there next to 
dlang.d, called GNUmakefile (not posix.mak; this is what it is - it's a 
gnu-specific makefile and gnu recognizes it).

It would include the respective makefiles for the subprojects, which 
need rework to avoid symbol collisions, and will be a one point of entry 
to building D artifacts.

Right now the intercommunication between dmd/druntime/phobos is a bit 
inconsistent and tenuous.

It does seem this might improve our quality of life.
