FWIW, I am actually working on automating as much as I can. I'm starting
with a minimal DMD bootstrapper (well, two really: one for Win and one
for Posix) so that, hopefully, all of our other tools can safely rely
on D being available.
Hopefully, I can have it all done in time for 2.064. We'll see.
Speaking of bootstrapping D (as this could impact what I'm doing as
well), there's been talk about parts of DMD being rewritten in D.
Where are we on that?
