Can D code be linked as part of C programs? (plug-ins in D?)

Sure.

That's precisely what you do.  If you compile the D piece of your
program as a lib, including its runtime, you should be able to link C
code to it.  You'll have to call the runtime startup/teardown
functions yourself, but it should work.  I'm pretty sure people have
made Apache modules in D before.
