It's because the shootout changed to 4 different computers instead of 1, and apparently DMD, or the D code written for the shootout, was not portable.

I don't really know why Walter Bright isn't doing what he needs to get D back in. D is so similar to C++ that people won't be willing to sacrifice performance for slightly better syntax. He should be trying to prove his performance claims.

Yes they should. The Stalin folks have made outrageous performance claims about its performance compared to C, despite the fact that Stalin compiles to C. This is because they compare it to polymorphic C code using function pointers rather than properly optimized code.
