You can convert anything with an explicit cast, but it doesn't make
much sense to cast between calling conventions types. The compiler
used to allow taking an address of an extern(C) function and assigning
it to an extern(D) function pointer. But this would just result in
segfaults and memory corruption due to how parameters are passed.

Nice code-golf, btw.
