Ouch - so how do we improve the status quo?
It's July, the packages are still listed as orphans [1],
haven't received the 2.074.1 update and the Arch TUs are
clearly not interested in maintaining it (its flagged as
out-of-date since beginning of June). Moreover, with the recent
move to -fPIC (which currently is in -fPIC), the packages would
need a rebuilt with -fPIC (see [2]).
Anyone with an idea?

As I wrote elsewhere in this thread, I quit using Arch because of
related problems. The answer (assuming things are still run the
way they were back then) is that you're not able to do anything
about it. You won't see anything done with the official package
and you won't be able to put anything in AUR because there is an
official package. Perhaps we can post a pkgbuild on dlang.org.
