In mine too.
What does system porgramming even mean? System without qualifier
is as wobbly a term as thing or stuff. System as in operating
system, or system as desktop system, or dabase system or web
system or, you get the idea, everything can be called a system.
Furthermore, as operating system language, D is not even that
appropriate as it requires really a lot from the platform it's
implemented in: >=32bits, stack, memory protection (or else no
TLS), etc.
So calling it General-purpose is really something to get behind.
