I do not think this is necessary. LDC can implement most
of D1 just fine on top of LLVM. The omissions are minor:
http://www.dsource.org/projects/ldc/wiki/Docs#Violationsofthespecification
Exposing particular features of the backend to the user
should be done through compiler-specific extensions. See
http://www.dsource.org/projects/ldc/wiki/InlineAsmExpressions
for an example.
Otherwise you'll make implementing a correct backend
for D even harder.
