You have to remember that the really big first client of betterC(++) was DMD, porting DMD from C++ was a big undertaking. Right now both DMD and LDC use a form of betterC, so it is critical to have it finalized.
This is entirely wrong. DMD and LDC rely extern(C++), but this has nothing to do with -betterC whatsoever.
Both compilers link and initialise the runtime as normal (and then disable the GC at runtime).
