I thing another way is to have the entire module a template and instantiate that template with necessary parameters. Although that means one has to have an additional namespace.

What's the best/standard way translating this to D?

One way is to use import expressions:

import std.stdio;
import std.conv;

enum value = import("value").to!int();

void main()
{
static if (value < 100)
writeln("<100");
else
writeln(">100");
}

Compile using:

dmd -Jpath/to/value source.d

"value" should be a file containing a single integer with no new line. It will be read in at compile time and converted to a manifest integer constant, which you can use in static if statements.
