This is really cool and I appreciate your efforts!
However (for those who are unaware) there is an alternative way
that is (arguably) better;

You can write portable vectorized code that can be trivially
invoked from D.
ispc is another compiler in your build, and you'd write in
another language, so it's not really the same thing. I haven't
used it (nor do I know anyone who do) so don't really know why it
would be any better
