Dec 19, 2009 at 6:11 comment added user2697 @ VA - this is not in fact a h/w problem. This arose due to a h/w problem that seemed to suggest that there may have been such curves for d >4 (of course it did not in fact suggest this, I was being very foolish.) Perhaps the problem should just be removed if it really is of no interest. (Also, Emile is a guy's name!) Sorry for the waste of time.
Dec 19, 2009 at 4:55 comment added VA. I beg to differ. This is a trivial homework problem (which the student should do herself). Hint: What is the definition of a hyperelliptic curve in terms of $|K_C|$? What is $K_C$ of a plane curve?
