I was reviewing the code for bcd.gen and was curious, is there a way to 
integrate its functionality into dmc for hybrid projects. Since D is 
meant to integrate C code somewhat natively via linking and the DMD/DMC 
suites are interlinked. Would it be possible to build a similar 
generator into the DMC frontend to create the neccessary D header code 
based on the symbols and structure that the DMC frontend engine produces?

That's pretty much precisely what htod (available on the DM site) is.  It's 
DMC with a backend that outputs .d files instead of object files.  Except 
that it isn't as complete as bcd.gen.
