Just for fun, I've decided to try and get MicroEmacs in D added to the dub
registry. The last time it compiled was 2 years ago.
I wound up with at least a dozen references to Phobos names that have
disappeared. No corrective action was indicated, just "undefined symbol".
I have to go refigure out what the code was trying to do, and go poking
through the Phobos documentation to see what will work today.
I know there's been a lot of "break my code" advocacy lately, but this
code was only 2 years old.
I fully understand how unfriendly this is to users and how discouraging it
can be to have their recently working code shattered and scattered. We
need to do a lot better.
Two years is too old, you skipped all the deprecation stages.
