Really? I have this script that automatically builds the latest DMD
toolchain:
----SNIP----
#!/bin/sh
#
# Pulls git master from github and (re)build everything.
#
set -e
for dir in dmd druntime phobos; do
(cd "$dir" && git pull --ff-only upstream master)
done
(cd dmd/src && \
make -f posix.mak clean && \
make -f posix.mak MODEL=64 -j6)
(cd druntime && \
make -f posix.mak MODEL=64)
(cd phobos && \
make -f posix.mak MODEL=64)
----SNIP----
One command builds it all. No frustration at all!

Just because you can, doesn't mean you should.
