I will give you this, though: D's toolchain could use improvement in
more complex builds.  But it's still a hell of a lot simpler than
anything C#'s toolchain can do.

Have you tried DSSS? It's surprisingly feature-rich, and its syntax is a lot simpler than MSBuild's.

IMO, any build more complex than setting a few options should be handled by a scripting language, though. Knocking together a Perl script to call your builder is often a lot easier than mucking around with huge configuration files (anyone who's used Ant can attest).
