Most, but not all. Also, the Android support depends on a slightly patched llvm for emulated TLS, so you'd have to build that modified llvm yourself. However, llvm 3.8 finally came with its own emulated TLS support for ELF, so the plan is to move over to that and have Android support baked into these official ldc releases at some point.
