Shouldn't rdmd somehow work with other compilers as well? Maybe you'll
also need gdmd though, so that rdmd calls gdmd which then calls gdc. But
I think more recent dmd versions also support #!/bin/dmd without rdmd, so
maybe our gdmd should also support #!/bin/gdmd usage.
Neither gdmd nor rdmd are shipped with gdc though in most distributions,
so none of these solutions are out-of-the-box. I think we need to make
sure that gdmd gets cleaned up and packaged by all linux distributions.
Iit will likely still be in a different package in most linux
distributions though.
