[phobos] When are we going to release a beta?

[Don Clugston]

There are two recent compiler regressions worth looking at, to see if
they are easily fixable:
Bug 5241 dmd: ABI breakage/regression (TypeInfo.toString() returns
partially corrupted string)
- has a patch, though I haven't checked to see if it is good;

Bug 5455 ICE(cgcod.c): Optimization (register allocation?) regression
in DMD 1.065
- which was caused by an innocuous change that has apparently
triggered a latent backend bug.
It would be trivial to temporarily reverse the change, but tracking
down the backend bug could be quite difficult.
