Using this new d.vim file, I get whole piles of errors just opening an empty 
.di file - starting off with

Error detected while processing /home/jmdavis/.vim/syntax/d.vim
line 4:
E477: No ! allowed: <!DOCTYPE html>
line 5:
E488: Trailing characters: <html>

and so on and so forth. I'm using vim 7.3 on Arch Linux. Maybe I need 7.4 for 
it to work? Or maybe something else in my setup is messed up. I only grabbed 
the syntax/d.vim file from your repo, since I don't know what the others are 
and don't currently have anything like them, so that may or may not be a 
factor. But based on the errors, it looks like my local version of vim just 
plain can't handle the new d.vim syntax file.
