If the D GC really is quite so bad, why hasn't a cabal formed to create

It's like with everything else that hasn't been done. No one has cared
enough do to something about it.
There are some issues that makes it harder to implement a good GC in D:
* D allows to do unsafe operations like unions, casts, pointer arithmetic
* D needs to be able to interface with C
* Most good GC implementations need some kind of barrier (read or write,
don't remember which). If I recall there are several people against this
in the community
