github holds the latest state of dmd, druntime, and Phobos. So, what's 
currently in github is what would be released if we were to another release 
today, not what was in the last release. The previous release is tagged 
(v2.054 IIRC), so you'd have to grab the tag to get the code from the last 
release if you wanted to get it from github instead of downloading the release 
from digitalmars.com. I don't know what was in the last release with regards 
to core.bitop and std.intrinsic. If std.intrinsic has been deprecated since 
the last release, then it wouldn't be deprecated in the release but it would 
be on github. On the other hand, if it was deprecated prior to the release and 
the release still had a non-deprecate version, then something went wrong with 
the file in the release, and the wrong version got released. But if it's not 
deprecated in the release, then odds are that it was deprecated since then.
