Systems programming in the MacOS X and Windows world isn't real systems
programming. The closest you get is kernel and driver work but even
there you have most of an OS to work with. I think the kind of systems
programming being considered is embedded work and/or things like BIOS
work.
Systems programming is everything you need to get an OS up and running.
At least it was so a few decades back when I attended computer science
and informatics engineering course.
OK then there may be some people doing systems programming for MacOS X
and Windows, but they all work for Apple and MS.
Regarding embedded and BIOS work, many systems being used today still
required a custom C compiler without full ANSI C support, so how would
such systems support a D- implementation?
