digitalmars.D.learn - Running DMD tests

I'm trying to run the test suite for DMD, but I'm running into issues.

I've cloned dmd from github, and successfully built dmd, but when I run 
'make' from the dmd/test dir, I get:

   $ make
   Creating output directory: test_results
   Building d_do_test tool
   object.d: Error: module object is in file 'object.d' which cannot
   be read
   Specify path to file 'object.d' with -I switch
   make: *** [test_results/d_do_test] Error 1

Do I need to set up my environment differently to run dmd in 
development? How can I get around this?

Note: I'm running OSX 10.6.7

Thanks

To quote IRC: In theory it's simple: go to dmd/test and run make. In practice you need to have druntime and phobos installed at the right places. I think if you clone dmd, druntime, and phobos and put them all in the same directory, then you build dmd, druntime, and phobos, then you should be able to run the test suite. you also need to have a dmd.conf that's not included with the suite :< Ah, yeah, true. And since I remember I made my dmd.conf point to those places, maybe you don't need to have druntime and phobos there after all. But it's still a good idea to be able to get non-release druntime (and to some extent phobos) when playing with non-release versions of DMD.

The problem you are experiencing comes from no dmd.conf being included 
with the Git repository. Either you can add one to your Git clone 
directory, or use your normal system-wide installation which probably 
has all the paths set up correctly by specifying the DMD variable: »make 
DMD=/usr/local/bin/dmd«.

Thanks a lot for that hint!
