Yes, that was my intention as well. We'll discuss how to proceed 
in the next few days.
On the good side those have mostly been phobos instead of 
language changes.

AFAIK the dmd work was mostly on C->D conversion and a few 
smaller fixes for @safe and @nogc.
On the bad side phobos changes had the tendency to not care too 
much about compatibility in the past.

As I've been on vacation the past 3-4 weeks, I still need to 
catch up and get a better overview.
