The D stem is well established in our JLA texts with intransitive as well as a transitive rection. Presumably such usage is multiplicative, while transitive forms are the standard factitive of the stative G stem. One can only wonder if perhaps there was also a distinct transitive usage for the G stem otherwise unattested.
