Seems it'll work as long as you don't refer to something in the 'd' 
package using its fully qualified name.  Then the package name will 
conflict with any locals named 'd'.

But the package name will always conflict with globals, at least it does 
when I try it with DMD 1.033.  Not that globals with single-letter names 
is something I'd recommend using.
