Sadly, the preprocessor, and it just happened to me today. In 
C++, I include the header and I'm done. In D, I have to either 
manually duplicate the C declarations or use dstep. I'm more than 
ok with the latter option, but my environment is weird (doesn't 
use the system libc) and dstep didn't work. Doing it manually 
would be so much work that I gave up for this project in 
particular.

Mostly I write everything in D these days though.
