I fail to see how D without GC could be a better tool in such
enviroments.
For a system with a tiny amount of memory, D probably is the wrong tool.
My suggestion would be:
0..64K assembler
64K..1M C
enum there = areALotOfCoolThingsInDThatDontNeedGC();
It'd be nice if D was an option here too.
1M+ D
The larger your program is, the more D starts to pull ahead.
