In general, you can't cross-compile across operating systems.
Linux to Windows is pretty easy. You can just run the Windows
version of dmd under wine on linux to make exes, or you can
compile gcc (and presumably gdc, though I've never tried) for
linux to make exes.
I'm sure similar techniques could be used, in theory at least, to
do Windows to Linux, but I've never seen it done.... and you're
absolutely right about the versions not matching up. Hell, it is
hard enough to get a binary from one linux box working on another
linux box!
