std.net is implemented in terms of libcurl but does not expose all of 
its functionality. I could not find a way of extracting curl-related 
information from it.

I found the following Socket example in my stash of code where it's easy 
to get the address information with remoteAddress() and localAddress(). 
But of course Socket is lower level than std.net. :-/

import std.stdio;
import std.socket;

void main() {
     Socket server = new TcpSocket();
     server.setOption(SocketOptionLevel.SOCKET, SocketOption.REUSEADDR, 
true);
     server.bind(new InternetAddress(8080));
     server.listen(1);

     while(true) {
         Socket client = server.accept();

         writefln("client Socket connected on %s", client.remoteAddress);

         char[1024] buffer;
         auto received = client.receive(buffer);

         writefln("The client said:\n%s", buffer[0.. received]);

         enum header =
             "HTTP/1.0 200 OK\nContent-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8\n\n";

         string response = header ~ "Hello World!\n";
         client.send(response);

         client.shutdown(SocketShutdown.BOTH);
         client.close();
     }
}
