I guess calling devenv for every build might be slow.

Instead running dustmite on the build batch file could work. Visual D 
writes source files and libraries to a response file to be passed to the 
compiler. It would help if dustmite could reduce the batch or the 
response file.
I guess more complications will show if dependent libraries are involved.

For example the Visual D parser is built with this:

set PATH=c:\l\d\dmd2.066\windows\\bin;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows 
Kits\8.1\\\bin;%PATH%
