This has the garbage collector rewritten in D.

 The C++ code has been replaced with D code in the Phobos source code.

The gc is a little slower at the moment because I haven't implemented inline functions yet. Inline functions will close the performance gap between C and D, though D has the potential for better optimization than C.

Intrinsic functions like I/O port calls added:
