There are a number of libraries covering different domains, some active 
some not. Also, D is binary compatible with C, so you can use existing C 
libraries with D (see Derelict[1] and Deimos[2] for examples).

There's also some support for binding with C++, but AFAIK it's not as 
reliable as the C interface due to incompatibilities between C++ 
compilers. There are also going to be limitations regarding certain C++ 
features. I /assume/ it will mostly work with DMC and GCC. But someone 
else will have to tell you how usable it is.
