I suppose D/Phobos is currently still too volatile to start committing to shared library version numbers yet. One *could* in theory start doing it and just end up with very large version numbers, which the system in theory can handle just fine, although people seem aversive to the possibility of having /usr/lib/libphobos.so.2.x for all x from 0 to some very large number.
