If you're willing try yet another IDE, I use Code::Blocks on both 
windows and linux, and while the intellisense or whatever C::B 
calls it is usually a waste of time it is at least completely 
stable and integrates OK with ddbg (which itself is not perfect, 
but...). It recognizes D syntax and it doesn't take 5 minutes to 
start-up. People also seem to like Mono-D.

Like Dmitry said, rdmd can be a big help, since you just compile 
your main and it will find the dependencies.
