gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i586-mandrake-linux/2.96/specs
gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Linux-Mandrake 8.0 2.96-0.48mdk)

Is there anyway to build the compiler etc from the source distribution?
There appears no makefile or configure...
What's a good way to get into D up and running quickly? Thanks!
