It's a cute idea, but not really practical, I'm afraid – 
Goroutines are managed by a scheduler in the Go runtime library, 
whereas D threads directly map to OS threads. Thus, if the Go 
application you are porting uses many Goroutines (and the Go code 
I've seen usually does so very liberally), the performance of the 
D equivalent is going to be horrible.
