Yes, that is true. I tend to avoid frameworks and look for focused libraries. Go eco system is in the early stage, but there are several light weight frameworks that looks quite promising.

with all the C support libraries available D is not in a bad position.

That's great in theory, but basic C-libraries are not as cheap to get working as an existing binding with a convenient abstraction on top if you start counting hours.
