But how is this possible in a cross-compiling context. I am not
sure if I can do that with the D language either as pure D or

compile better C, but not sure mingw can compile

If you're referring to `rt_init` and `rt_term` are the
`extern(C)` functions in `core.runtime`. It's no

As others have said, you have no reason to restrict yourself to
BetterC. If you dislike objects and/or other high-level features,
you can simply use D in a low-level way like you'd use C. That
works just as well from normal D as from BetterC. Both the C
standard library and third-party C librar
