I don't think it matters much except for in a press release. So better to stay humble than oversell.

I'd say stay with 0.x until DMD has settled C++ integration and fixated the memory model. LDC has some great options for great clang integration, so going 1.0 with great C++ integration would be a nice marketing possibility (2.x and 16.x is not as marketable).

Just look at all the fuzz around Go and Rust when going 1.0 (yes, that is the compiler, but still...)

On Linux x86/x86-64 :)

I can't compile for arm.

The missing __mulodi4 symbol? I you need to link against compiler-rt on arm.
Are another error?

LDC should work now at least for Arch Linux @ ARM (it worked last time I checked the packages). I had to disable intrinsics usage in druntime that caused missing __mulodi4 error when preparing the package but that was the only issue.
