Considering the fact that the D garbage collector still has a lot

look at "Memory Pool" 
(http://www.ravenbrook.com/project/mps/version/1.111/manual/html/index.html)?

The authors claim it is an industrial strength garbage 
collector/memory pool in use since 1994.

Is the license compatible with D?

Given that their license is custom and DRuntime and Phobos are Boost  
licensed I am going to say not likely.
