Maybe after this:

https://github.com/dlang/dmd/commit/1d0ab8b9c136e46bf449c506ca25d2c8a784f7b9#diff-b4674e7b5d3a44178526afdefc9aa368

ddmd.attribs was removed

https://github.com/dlang/dmd/commit/1d0ab8b9c136e46bf449c506ca25d2c8a784f7b9#diff-b4674e7b5d3a44178526afdefc9aa368L15

and it was also part of the cycle.
