not sure if i understand your question. but you can just do
Integrate[ Integrate[ f(x,y),{y, 0, 1-x}, {y,0,1}]
if u don't like this you can always transform it into u v coordinate system.
finding the jacobian for the transformation will get complex for a domain
that's irregular.
RAyRAy =) heheh
Hope that helps.
