Yes, but D uses mostly bindings and if any of those bindings use it then It effects the D program that uses it. Since many of the bindings are written in C/C++ one can expect that many of them use the GPL license.

LGPL is much more common, and LGPL isn't a problem when you distribute by source. It *is* a problem with static linking with binary distributions (which is the default for D).

This is not a new issue. Software licensing is a well understood, well publicized concern. It doesn't merit alarmism.

Sure it does! Stop being a Nazi war criminal wanna be! Do you work for the FOSSF? Otherwise known as the F-OSS-F = Future - Office of Strategic Services - Foundation.
