Which agrees with my calculation.

You're comparing apples and oranges somewhat here.  Delphi and MinGW 
with version set to 0x400, D bindings with version set to 0x501.  If you 
try comparing like with like, _then_ what works and what doesn't?

That said, on re-reading your original post, I can guess what you're 
doing wrong: trying to work around the missing extern (C) attributes in 
ras.d instead of fixing them.  And consequently, merely renaming the 
functions and not actually fixing the calling convention.  I got it to 
link by fixing this error, and then....

FTM what version of Windows are you trying it on?  This is under XP (I'm 
away from my usual computer for a week and a bit).
