Yeah. That's a big problem, which is part of why Walter and Andrei have tried 
to push Deimos. But it's also a problem that should go away over time, even if 
it's happening frustratingly slowly at this point.

However, I _was_ pleasantly surprised the other day when I figured out the 
other day that someone had already created a D parser for YAML ( 
https://github.com/kiith-sa/D-YAML ). I needefd one and was expecting to have 
to write it (which I was actually kind of looking forward to, since I love 
parsers, but it's nice to have it without having to do all of the work to get 
it - especially when I'm already short on time). So, there are at least _some_ 
libraries written in D which are floating around, just nowhere near enough.
