Instead of using waitpid(-1), explicitly waits on all known processes. This is inefficient for large numbers of child processes, but seems to be the only way to ensure to not interfere with other code that uses waitpid(). |

EventCore
This is a high-performance native event loop abstraction for D, focused on asynchronous I/O and GUI message integration. The API is callback (delegate) based. For a higher level fiber based abstraction, take a look at vibe.d.
