Nice - looks like it's working:
Note that the build time of the gdc job was already pretty high and is something that can be addressed in another PR (if it's even easy to address):

Ah sorry. gdmd already supports it and translates it to -fd-vtls, but it seems like support for it was removed in gdc - the error is simply:
gdc: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-fd-vtls’

Ah, yes that ugly option is gone. And replaced with -ftransition=tls. Can add a condition to pick one or the other based on the gcc version.

And lastly, if you save the gdmd script to /usr/bin/gdmd-8, you wouldn't need this symlink. I guess you'd need to export DMD=gdmd-8 ?

@wilzbach - Oops, looks like the compiler was built |
Trying out @ibuclaw's suggestion of using a special Ubuntu PPA.
