That reminds me.  Something else to consider is that some of 
these microcontrollers don't have FPUs.  Graphics libraries 
designed for microcontrollers often use fixed-point math as a 
lowest common denominator.  I think, given the features of D, 
fixed-point or floating point could be selected at compile-time.

But, I don't wish to expand the scope of the project.  An 
all-floating point library would be fine, IMO, and fixed-poing 
math could be added to the library in a future iteration.
