Which version of DMD is GDC 10 based on?
Compile the following D program to find out:

I have this line in a file called langver.d, and whenever the
exact language version isn't obvious, I compile it to find out
the version. :-) (And yes it deliberately asserts instead of
using pragma(msg) so that I don't have to type -o- or -of- or
-c or whatever to suppress actual code emission, just
`$compiler langver.d`.)

Nice trick. Thanks. For the benefit of others, GDC 10 is based on
DMD 2.076. https://dlang.org/changelog/2.076.0.html
Side note, Using $() is better than `` for subshells, as it makes
nesting much easier. ;-)
