Hi, This patch extends AC_PROG_GDC so that as well as checking for the existence of a GDC compiler, also validate that it has also been built with libphobos, otherwise warn or fail with the message that GDC is required to build d.
Tested on a system running powerpcle-linux both without a D compiler, and with a D compiler configured with --disable-libphobos. This would also help with Solaris and Darwin ports, where support for both D and runtime isn't present across all current releases. OK for mainline?
