extern(C) your D functions & enjoy! If you're not running the D garbage 
collector, don't rely on garbage collection happening (obvious), and a 
bit less obvious is that many libraries require their static 
constructors to be called, so be sure to run those first. Also, don't 
throw exceptions over D-C lines. There's probably other limitations I'm 
not thinking of/don't know of.
