I know a simple counter measure: use DLLs as a container for the DDL 
specific format. AFAIK C# does exactly the same.

By the way, can't you simply put the runtime into a DLL, and load that 
by the host program? D DLL would also depend from the runtime DLL. Then 
the runtime would be shared, wouldn't it?
