You can use introspection to check for features and bug fixes 
directly:

```d
static if (__traits(compiles, { import std.whatever: someSymbol; 
}))
{
     // std.whatever.someSymbol exists
}

private bool hasBug()
{
     // test case for bug
}

static if (hasBug)
{
     // workaround for bug
}
else
{
     // code without the workaround
}
```
