D runtime required if you need all that cool features like slices, GC

for ARM already exists but i don't know which or what status they are.
Slices don't need runtime support, they're a pointer and a length after
all. Appending to slices does because it needs to allocate memory.
p.s. i think the only reason D doesn't have ARM and MIPS already is
because Walter don't know asm for this architectures :)
I've also used GDC on a MIPS router with linux. This should actually
work (unless we broke it). There is even Fiber support on MIPS_O32.
