You can not use D without the runtime library.

You can make an empty library and add required functions. Look at 
Mikes examples at https://github.com/jinshil. With this you can 
write C like programs but you can not for example have any oo 
related things like classes.

To use more D features you need a modified runtime, something 
like mine at https://bitbucket.org/timosi/minlibd.

These projects are both for Arm microcontrollers and gdc but you 
get the idea.
