Is there a GC'd malloc alternative?

[Now, is this the right newsgroup? I am confused...]

Hi, I'm new to D but got into it pretty quickly...
it's heaven for a lazy old C coder! }:->>>

I just wonder if there is no library function that
works like 'malloc' but in garbage collected memory?

Happy hacking, 0ffh

p.s.
I am probably not looking for the 'new' operator,
as 'new' seems to take only certain types as
"argument", not the size of the requested memory
chunk, as does 'malloc'.
