Moving away from Makefiles to something like this definitely 
appeals to me (editing the makefiles is _not_ fun, and sadly, in 
spite of how bad it is, posix.mak is far less of a pain than 
win32.mak). However, as far as actually moving away from the 
Makefiles goes, you'd have to convince Walter and Andrei, and I 
don't know how convincible they are or aren't. And I don't think 
that we really want to have multiple ways to build the standard D 
toolchain, since then that increases maintenance to keep them in 
line with one another. So, if we have raggae builds (or anything 
like it) for the D toolchain, then I think that we need to fully 
move over to them and ditch the makefiles altogether.
