I'm building a nix environment for dmd, and am having problems

I'm following the instructions on the wiki:

The first thing I've run into seems that the X64 instructions
are
out of date? it says to do "make -f posix.mak MODEL=64", but
that
doesn't seem to do anything...
Anyways, that's just minor detail.
make -f posix MODEL=64
is correct.
Indeed. Looks like I got confused with the message "no cpu
specified, assuming X86"
I'm hitting a wall at building phobos, because of curl:
make -f posix.mak DMD=../dmd/src/dmd
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lcurl
I've isntalled curl via apt-get ("sudo apt-get curl"), and it
seems to be installed. Just not in ld:
which curl
/usr/bin/curl
cd /usr/bin/ld
bash: cd: /usr/bin/ld: Not a directory
Bit of help on either of these two isues? Then I'll update the
wiki.
I don't use Ubuntu, but my guess is that it has a separate
package (probably
with devel in the name) which includes the static lib. Many
distros don't
include all of the stuff required to build against a library in
the main
package for a library - just the stuff required to dynamically
link against it.

Hum... Well, I'm not used to doing this. Time for more googlin' I
guess :/
