 From this blog you can see go can call rust function without CGO 
https://words.filippo.io/rustgo/


maybe add extern(GO) will bring D into a large user community.

extern(GO) should only support pointer and scalar arguments, and 
must be  nogc nothrow.

The way I understand the article, nothing new is needed on the D 
side: you use extern(C) (and -betterC if you don't want to link 
with druntime).

you are right, any extern(C) from static or dynamic library 
should be able to link into golang.


What I like to do is like extern(C++) or extern(Objc), add 
extern(GO) support, generate function is able to call from go 
without extra trampoline.  (generate syso file to link with go)
