Perl has a method to call functions from C code or libraries

Has anyone done something like this with D in Perl before?
Failing that, is there prior art of calling D code from C?
to get the ABI right, just use extern(C) on the relevant D
functions.
however, if the perl interface needs to write wrapper functions
based on C headers you will have to write a C header containing
the relevant function declarations.
