Basically because it requires GCC > 4.2 - but unfortunately
there's more.
Once upon a time, LLVM did support being built with GCC 4.2,
but I can't get
those sources anymore, so I can't get a 'bootstrap LLVM' that
way.
I guess if you're happy to work with D1... (which is far more
easier
to port than D2 will ever be).
It's actually only clang I have problems with, not LDC.
D2 probably doesn't have any serious errors on my platform.
-The only part that was a bit challenging was the BE issue, but
I'm confident that it will be solved the right way. ;)
At some point, I might want to try building dmd as well;
currently it does not seem to support Mac/PPC (I had a short look
at it, but it seems I need to write some header files in order to
get it working).
