With the visualizer macros in autoexp.dat, the VS debugger shows an 
associative array something like this:

aarray
+ [0] <key1, value1>
+ [1] <key2, value2>
+ [2] <key3, value3>
+ [3] <key4, value4>

I think this is pretty alright. (See also the tooltip shown here: 
http://www.dsource.org/projects/visuald/browser/wiki/debug.png )

If this does not work for you, I expect that the Visual D installer 
failed to patch autoexp.dat correctly.
