I agree. I don't see any reason to use perl, unless you're using a
pre-existing perl script.

At a technical level, you're right. But people don't expect this to be
possible when just the compiler is run, and won't be looking out for it.
I also don't want D compilers to be maligned as vectors for malware,
even if such maligning is undeserved. I don't want D compilers to be
blocked by security conscious administrators.
