There's std.compiler: https://dlang.org/phobos/std_compiler.html
e.g. https://run.dlang.io/is/IJUmFt

Patch releases should only fix bugs, so the only the latest should be
considered for developers (though yep, that's not exposed atm).
Also we are about to to switch to SemVer soon, so we should be careful to jump
into anything at the moment:

> also, how do we get __VERSION_LDC__ ? eg for ldc 1.7.0 ?

That's something you will need to ask the LDC people.
