Let me do a bit advertising :) I'm writing a library for @nogc D 
programming, tanya. It has different aims than -betterC: I use 
the full set of D features, just except features that require GC. 
It isn't complete, I'm using it only in personal projects and it 
is also a big learn project for me, so don't wonder that it 
reimplements a lot of features "from scratch" and almost doesn't 
depend on phobos. But if you like to play with it, you're welcome:
