Honestly, I recommend just learning C and C++.  Especially C if 
you're into low level stuff.  You won't just broaden your job 
market, you'll learn stuff that will help you use D more 
effectively.  You don't have to think of it as "leaving" the 
language.

You'll have to learn to do without them :)
