wonder if there is a way to cross-compile D code so that you can 
work on one platform and simultaneously create code for other 
platforms. In my case it would be Mac to Linux. I can imagine 
that there are a lot of dependency issues (especially on Windows).

Very informative post.

P.S.: Chris, you could try a GCC cross-compiler. It isn't easy
the first time, but it should work if done right. One hurdle
for example is that you need to chose the correct GDC
development branch. The main branch targets the .8 series,
which isn't stabilized, and there is a compatibility branch
for .7. There is a wiki page on building a GDC cross-compiler
somewhere as well, maybe a bit outdated.
