dcollections is Boost and the author fully supports moving 
anything into Phobos, several existing came from dcollections.

The design of dcollections is at odds with the intended design of 
std.collections. I believe it was Cursor vs Range. And much of 
std.collections is waiting on finalization of what custom 
allocators will look like.
