gerbv from the geda project apparently cannot read RS-274D.
But gerbview from kicad can. It can then export to kicads layout format,
from where you can go ahead and export to the more modern RS-274X.

I just went this route for the layout mentioned in this stackexchange
conversation:
	https://electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/428596/how-to-convert-a-rs-274d-gerber-to-rs-274x
When exporting to the layout format I had to give the meaning of the
different layers. This is to be expected. Also, I am not sure about
the holes. It might be necessary to place them again centered to the
pads. But the fundamental geometry seemed to work out fine.

Hope that helps,
