Error: can't convert from void* to a function pointer.  Oh well.

OK, I've tested this one on 0.177
(Yes, I need to update this system :-b)


R delegate(Args) ToDelegate(R, Args...)(R function(Args) func)
{
 struct S
 {
  void callMe(Args args)
  {
   return (cast(R function(Args))cast(void*)this)(args);
  }
 }
 return &((cast(S*)cast(void*)func).callMe);
}
