[phobos] Time to get ready for the next release

[Steve Schveighoffer]

It doesn't work for me.  See:

http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=4174
http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=4182

I should say, 4174 is due to using interfaces.

Since the old methods are unofficially still there, I have something to fall back on for dcollections, but I expect some day to have to drop all references to the old operator overloading functions.  Is it frustrating?  Yes.  Does it seem pointless?  Yes.  But my single opinion and my library cannot be the reason that an obviously better system isn't adopted.
