>From the changelog page (http://dlang.org/changelog.html) it used to be very
easy to grab an older zipped release (e.g. to track regressions), but now all
links redirect to http://dlang.org/download.html.

>From the download page there doesn't seem to be a way to find the older
versions of D.

Apparently there is also this new section of the website:
http://downloads.dlang.org/releases/

But I don't see this being linked to from anywhere. Additionally it has a
really weird layout by putting everything into yearly folders, which isn't
useful when you're just trying to find an exact version.
