Probably, but I think that Andrei or Walter would have to be the one to do that. 
But dmd.conf has changed a fair bit with this release, and anyone who doesn't 
use dmd.conf (I have no idea why you wouldn't - it seems like you're just making 
life harder on yourself) is going to run into trouble.

However, in general, I don't think that dmd.conf changes have made it into the 
changelog, so that's nothing new. Walter probably assumes that you're going to 
use the provided dmd.conf and doesn't think about it.
