No. C++ interop and GC are related, but only loosely.
In terms of getting C++ developers to use D, this thread that just
appeared is a perfect example of why C++ interop won't help until you
can use the standard library without the GC.

Of course. That's why I wrote:
C++ interoperability: 1,000,000 merit points
Anything related to the GC: 999,999 merit points
All else: two digits merit points
