Based on my experience POSIX compliance is like any standard.
You end up getting lots of #ifdef for each POSIX system

know GNU/Linux.
One thing missing from the list which costs a lot of effort,
is code
generation.
Based on my toy Solaris experience with DMD, I think it is
easier to
use LDC or GDC for bringing D to other platforms.

Yeah, it seems like POSIX kind of failed in the sense that you
can't
just have a simple posix makefile that works for any posix
compliant os.
I direct you to the POSIX makefiles of DMD, druntime, and
phobos. ;)
Which as far as I am aware only work on POSIX == Linux.
