Maybe, but at this point, I think that C++ is actually getting
features faster than D is. We talk about adding features or
tweaking existing features to fix problems, but we're long
past the point where we're frequently adding features. If
anything, the typical complaint now is that we're _not_ making
changes, even when we've been discussing them (e.g. this very
thread was started to ask what the deal with a proposed change
is, because it hasn't gone anywhere yet, and it's a change
proposed by Walter and Andrei no less).

C++ also has a 'feature' creep problem.
If I may the problem is not that much how feature rich the
language is, but how orthogonal these feature are. The less
orthogonal they are, the more special cases you get when they
interact with each other.
