Except for all our changes to the dmd frontend sources, I don't see any problem with updating 
LLVMDC to D2.0.

Of course it would be a bit of work to implement the new expression/statement variations, but 
I'd assume nothing _too_ major.

However the plan right now is to make a fully working D1.0 compiler, until that's done no work 
will go into future D2.0 support!
