I didn't know that a Dill is a stupid person ... but maybe that says 
something about me. ;-)

Seems fine to me.  Actually my first thought was that "dil" could be 
thought of as an acronym for "D Interface Library" or "D 
Internationalized Library" or "D Implementation Language", "D 
Interpreter Library" or somesuch.  Very good acronym potential there. 
And I'm quite fond of dill, to boot.  What's not to like?
