Sounds like a good idea, though you probably want to use SWIG 2.0
for the improved D support - while wxPython uses SWIG 1.3 afaict ?

I would drop support for wxWidgets 2.x and DMD 1.x - and go for
wxWidgets 2.9.x and DMD 2.0xx directly. And pick one "make" (GNU).

Trying to support two languages, two libraries, two+ compilers,
two+ buildtools, and so on, was just no fun and not very workable ?

It's easier to just use configure+make, and MSYS/MinGW on Windows,
than trying to work with the DOS console (in C++) or DM's Make.exe.
