There's no way I'd have gotten Quantum Break out the door if LDC
was the only option for example.
That's the reality of the world. Platform holders expect you to
use certain compiler tool chains. I don't see how this example is
any different.
Given that all three active compilers (DMD, LDC, GDC) are based
off the same frontend, at the very least I'd expect the frontends
to match for the versions they're based off. Backends? Nah.
You're on your own there.
