I think I fixed it.

Which is the wrong thing to do. 'ref' means that the range itself can
be changed, not the order that it is iterated in. If this flexibilty is
required, a plain 'for' loop suffices.

It's nice to see it's getting better and better. Good work!

I usually do, but didn't really get the time to try it out this release.

I'm not its maintainer. I'd like the person who updates it, to know and/or do the pull request.

The changelog is old. It did not get the changes from issue# 8459, so it still lists isSafe as being changed to check for @safe only.

A propos, is it about time to give up on changelog and replace it with bugzilla data-range queries? Maintaining the log is a manual time-wasting chore and bugzilla actually formats the data nicer. Thoughts? Destroy changelog starting with 061?

We need changelog.dd for the new/changes section (which is where the problem is in this case), but your suggestion makes sense for the bugzilla section. It requires someone doing the work though. I threw together a quick program to grab the bugfix list from bugzilla and write it to a file, which is why the Phobos bugfix list is as complete as it is, but I have no idea how you'd go about automating it in the web page (as assume you'd be looking to do). My knowledge of web-related programming is negligible. So, I like the idea, but I have no idea who's actually going to implement it.
