Does this mean from GCC 10 onwards, GCC releases will closely track DMD
releases, the same way LDC does?  *That* would be very, very nice
indeed.

And now that GCC officially supports D, new opportunities arise. E.g.,
we could ship D programs in Linux distros now, and nobody will be able
to complain about needing an obscure compiler to build said programs.
Hearty thanks to Iain for pushing this through to completion!
