Here you go:

void rc2_decrypt( const(ushort)[64] xkey, ubyte* plain, const(ubyte)*  
cipher )
{
     uint x76, x54, x32, x10, i;
     x76 = (cipher[7] << 8) + cipher[6];
     // .....
}

You'd better pass cipher and plain as arrays rather than pointers if their  
sizes are known:

void rc2_decrypt( const(ushort)[64] xkey, const(ubyte)[] plain,  
const(ubyte)[] cipher )
{
     uint x76, x54, x32, x10, i;
     x76 = (cipher[7] << 8) + cipher[6];
     // .....
}
