Nick recently did a patch for this one:

https://www.bountysource.com/issues/1327154-dmd-never-inlines-functions-that-could-throw+

we've had a lot of movement on this one

https://www.bountysource.com/issues/1326911-dtoh-utility-convert-d-files-to-c-header-files

and it pretty well works now waiting on the OK to merge:

Generally though, I don't think the bounties are going to change 
much behavior; the only issues that will be addressed are the 
ones that we were going to do anyway, since the dollar amount is 
just too small to change a business decision.

Take multiple alias this for example. I've looked at the dmd 
source for that before and judged it would be a pretty big job - 
probably a week devoted to it, if not more. The bounty is 
$100.... so that's, what, $2/hour? There's very little practical 
difference between that and doing it just because I felt like it; 
financially, I'd be better off flipping burgers. No real change 
to the incentive.
