1) have you declared the functions you want to call with 
extern(C)?

2) you will need to compile the D code as a shared library.

3) you will need to call rt_init / rt_term to start / stop the 
runtime in order to use some features of D. There are problems 
with the runtime when using multiple D shared libraries, so it's 
best to link everything you need as a single shared lib.
