Linux and Windows have been doing this for years (since Kernel 2.6.12 / Windows Vista). Are the relevant parts of the runtime so different on OSX? (And has this ever broken D executables/was DMD or the runtime changed to fix it?)
I was under the impression they'd gone above and beyond what Windows/Linux did in the way of ASLR? Perhaps not.
There are definitely parts of the runtime that could be affected by it that differ on OS X compared to linux/windows (TLS is the first thing that comes to mind), whether that would be affected at all by it though I have no idea.
