About three and a half years ago another guy and I got GDC/D1 working 
(...sort of...) on GameBoy Advance:

The downside is there was abolutely no phobos/tango/druntime whatsoever, so 
a bunch of language features like structs and classes were unusable. But I 
got a trivial sample app running.

D is perfect for these sorts of systems. It's been years since I've actually 
had any time for homebrew, but back when I did I would have loved to have 
been able to use a fully-functional D (even if it was sans-GC) instead of 
dealing with the ancient C.
