Turns out I can't help myself:

https://github.com/yebblies/dmd/tree/microd
(the makefile changes are win32 only, but aren't very compilcated)

It compiles the following into cryptic c full of mangled names just fine:

__gshared int global = 3;

int main()
{
    uint x;
    foreach(i; 0..20)
    {
        x += i;
    }
    return 0;
}

Doesn't seem that hard.  Dmd would need support for 8/16 bit pointers and a 
few other things, but I think most of the customization could be done with 
some well-defined macros and per-architecture header files.  Some features 
are implemented in wrong part of the compiler, and will cause problems.
