Technically no, but it should achieve the same thing.  Given the 
functionality of the volatile statement in D:

     int* io = 0x1234;
     int x;

     volatile x = *io;

implicitly guarantees that the load from *io will always occur from 
memory rather than from a cached register value.  I know it's not as 
convenient as labeling a variable as volatile as per C/C++, but it 
should do.
