Based on my experience POSIX compliance is like any standard.
You end up getting lots of #ifdef for each POSIX system anyway. The
only people that think POSIX is a standard without any issues, only
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.
Er... they work on Linux, OS X, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris/SunOS.
