DWT works fine for me at least.
Try the following:
cd /path/to/dwt
dmd build.d

build base

del .\imp\java\lang\util.di

copy  .\base\src\java\lang\util.d .\imp\java\lang\

build swt

del .\imp\org\eclipse\swt\internal\Library.di

copy 
.\org.eclipse.swt.win32.win32.x86\src\org\eclipse\swt\internal\Library.d 
.\imp\org\eclipse\swt\internal

then build your app using (win32):

dmd
-Ipath\to\dwt\imp
-Jpath\to\dwt\org.eclipse.swt.win32.win32.x86\res
path\to\dwt\lib\org.eclipse.swt.win32.win32.x86.lib
path\to\dwt\lib\olepro32.lib
path\to\dwt\lib\oleacc.lib
path\to\dwt\lib\usp10.lib
path\to\dwt\lib\msimg32.lib
path\to\dwt\lib\opengl32.lib
path\to\dwt\lib\shlwapi.lib
path\to\dwt\lib\dwt-base.lib
yourapp.d

may be you'll need to fix the paths I wrote - I think it won't be hard
