So one of the problems with generating D code for bindings to

If anyone happens to understand well how vtables work and the
way the compiler treats these things, is there a way to hackily
make semantically-equivalent objects?
I believe Clang and MSVC are using different layouts.
If I am not wrong clang/gcc are using the Itanium ABI, but I
could be wrong.

Maybe ask in the LDC forum as they follow Clang? In my opinion MI
ought to be supported for binding, but... not sure if anyone has
considered it.
