That is possible yes. There are many chip vendors that has some 
kind of C API framework that is available together with their 
IPs. In this case (if import C works correctly) you can import 
their C API in D and then write D code than the usual C/C++ code 
which more likely will lead to buggy code. For low level code 
you're more likely to use better C than D though.

If import C worked, I would have done that right out of the bat 
(the managers will stop me of course).
