I have a question for the future development with ddmd.

2.067 contains some known serious codegen bugs. For example, issue 14815 (https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14815) is not fixed in both 2.067 and 2.068. It's fixed only in git-head (would be released by 2.069?)

If we will continue to use 2.067 to build new ddmd compiler, we have to avoid issue 14815 in dmd source code _forever_? There's no migration path to update host dmd compiler?

I would raise PRs for regressions and maintenance bug-fixes to the 2.068 branch too. It will take time, but 2.067 will be dropped once gdc and ldc get up to 2.068.

I know I am, and it looks like David is too still finding issues with 2.067 that will need to be upstreamed somehow...
