That's actually another option, drop the 2.77.z branch of stdx 
alloc.
(forgot to say, its possible that it requires a backport from the 
master branch...)

But is it for dparse so dscanner, dcd, dsymbol, dfmt will have to 
be updated.
That's some boring maintenance work.

Currently there's nothing that can be done with a simple PR, I've 
tried a few days ago:

- https://github.com/dlang-community/libdparse/pull/444
- https://github.com/dlang-community/libdparse/pull/443
- https://github.com/dlang-community/libdparse/pull/442

For the time being, disable the Meson tests, that's what blocks 
the PR, that what's urgent.

Then, later, those who still care about the projects involved 
could take a decision on : "fix the tags in the 2.77.z branch or 
update everything to use master".
