Why can't D have its own types?
I have to agree with ryuukk_ on this one; it's one thing to
maintain binary compatibility with C, and another to import and
use C symbols all over the place in the standard library. I think
that interfaces with C (or any other language) should be reduced
to the minimum required to make something work, and nothing more.
So, keep the usage of malloc/realloc/free to allocators and
whatnot, and use fread/fwrite only in stdio.
