Irrelevant datum. 

What matters is what programmers out there wanting to use D can use. On
Debian and Fedora DMD is not an option, it's existence is irrelevant
due to all the supposed licencing faff. For Debian and Fedora, LDC is
the only option and the only way. GDC is on Debian but seemingly not on
Fedora.

This is fine. DMD can be the development playground, but it is unlikely
ever to be the primary production compiler, that will be LDC. I think
the D Foundation should put this strategy up front.
