Chris:
But if you have to use and work with the library to develop real world applications, it's a nightmare. If this doesn't change, I fear D will never take off.
It's useful to know your pain experience, but please don't turn this thread into FUD (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fear,_uncertainty_and_doubt ). Possible solutions only come from more rational discussions.
In another thread people are discussion a solution that will help you, a "Stable D", updated only once in a time, like every 6-8-12 months, that has no know regressions and where only nonbreaking changes are allowed (here Phobos modules deprecations are probably to be intended as breaking changes).
