No. In theory it would be possible to write one, but it wouldn't be particularly
useful, as its output would likely not be readable D code. Look at some of the C
code output by language x to C compilers. It's not readable C. It's filled with
gotos and no high-level constructs, etc. This analogy is relevant b/c D has a
C-like subset and the higher level parts are the harder parts to target
programmatically. Translating into *readable* code would probably require some
program that passes the Turing test.
