D will never be considered production ready as pong as this 
attiude remaind. Your described scenario in practice works like 
this:

- You decide to delay fix until you have time to investigate
- Half of users of your library you (or your colleagues) complain 
that they can't upgrade their projects because you areso slow
- You desperately find time to do required fix which proves 
bavkwards incompatible
- Now the other half of your users (colleagues) complain that 
your rush to upgrade forces them to switch to immature compiler

.. or one can spend one extra hour to implement deprecation path 
and the issue disappears completely.
