The toolchain from swift.org should work with playground, if it does not please file bug on bugs.swift.org. 

Info from swift.org: 

"To submit to the App Store you must build your app using the version of Swift that comes included within Xcode.”

Maybe the Xcode team is using some special flags for compilation or applying internal fixes? I ask this question because we're seeing some projects that compile fine with the official toolchain, but fail to do so with one downloaded from the repository, from the exact tagged version.
