I'm a little unclear on what exactly you're looking for:
Gold doesn't really need much in the way of updates, it's already very
solid. I use it. And although it was looking like Devin had dissapeared for
a while, he's recently showed up again on the mailing list.
But if you're talking about a Gold engine written in D (ie, something
written in D that takes in a source file and parses it according to a
provided .cgt), the "stc" side project I've been working on contains an
up-to-date one for D1/Tango (in fact, that's mostly all stc is so far). I
haven't done any formal release, but you can grab the latest version I've
pulled together here (sorry, the svn for it isn't set up publically ATM):
http://www.semitwist.com/download/stc_v0.004.7z
(There's also a .zip of it in the same place if you prefer that.)
Documentation, source, tools, and Win32 binaries are included.
If you're talking about a D grammar for Gold, you're probably on your own,
I'm not aware of one.
