Deja Augustine's version is outdated and also limited in its coverage of the
Python API.  Try this:
http://kinterbasdb.sourceforge.net/other/d/celerid-2006_03_19.zip

That zip includes a trivial example.  It worked fine with Python 2.4.x and the
then-current version of D last time I tried it (which was March 19, 2006).

However, it doesn't work at all on non-Windows platforms because [the Digital
Mars implementation of] D only supports dynamic linking on Windows.  That fact
alone prevents me from using D for anything useful.
