I think GDC and LLVMDC would be nice testbeds for such an extension. One of
these could implement those into the compiler along with a software
implementation for compatibility with the other compilers. Hopefully Walter
would either include this experimental extension into the D spec, or
propose a standard interface himself.
I overlooked the LLVM tutorial and it seems to be quite easy, but I don't
whether I find the time soon to do myself what I demand from others ;-)

I know about it, and it's really awesome what you can do in D.
