Cool interview. The D discussion was looooooong, I was expecting a
2-minute talk about D and then moving onto C++ business. Pretty cool!

Now if we could have an easy way to enforce the GC out of compilation
via some compile-time switch we could forever get rid of that GC
equals slow application argument. I find that "D is 90% of C++'s speed
and that's it" comment to be silly. I'm paraphrasing there, I can't
recall the exact words, but it was something to that effect.

Anyway, interesting times ahead with D and C++. Did they do any work
at all regarding the ABI for C++11? Like define it properly for
interoperability with other languages?
