The requirement, as far as I understand, is: the last/previous 
version must be able to build the new one. Hence it shouldn't be 
a problem to use the latest DMD release from now on.

However, according to the release cycle [1] I'd expect something 
like yearly DMD version granularity. (yearly granularity - how to 
express that in English?)
