Hmm... it is documented as "Compiler version as an integer, such
as 2001". I wouldn't except this to match the DMDFE version for
anything except DMD, a priori. I observe that both GDC and LDC
right now keep the same code (i.e. __VERSION__ does match the
DMDFE version on those compilers) but, say, SDC has a version of
0. Frankly I'd except LDC to have a __VERSION__ of 0010 (or
however they want to encode that) instead of 2060.
Well, whatever... it is good enough for now. I'll isolate the
version checking code and hope that GDC/LDC developers don't
change the __VERSION__ code.
I'm still up to implementing this if somebody with commit rights
sees the hackiness of this.
