Is there a practical reason why they are not in the same repo?
No, other than trying to put them into one would grind
everything to a halt for a while and would probably cost us
more than we'd win. (All pull requests would need to be
recreated, for one, and a lot of tools will break.)
Would at having them as submodules of dmd ease everything?
They could be separate repos, but the makefiles would try to find
them in the submodule location and if there, great, otherwise,
keep business.
On a separate topic: are the official DMD releases compiled with
the previous version of DMD or GDC? How does that work?
