Hi, Walter,
The answer appears to be yes:

That's great news. I suppose I should look over the forms they talk about!
Great news indeed! Since DMD FE is GPL I think it won't be any trouble to
fold in the new changes back to GDC as they did (and LDC too), so it won't
be really a *fork*, right?
Well, still I won't be supporting gdc directly. It would mean a team
that would be willing to take new DMD FE updates and fold them into GDC,
and then follow whatever gcc's build and release conventions are.
Walter, please, please, please let us know how this progresses. Thanks!
Who in the FSF is a contact person about this?
