But if needed, you could have your dub package depend on a prior version.

This is the answer, vibe.d should depend on stdx-allocator.

Vibe.d (and a lot of other projects) do depend on this package, see e.g.

https://github.com/vibe-d/vibe.d/pull/1983

Also many packages already depend on vibe.d-0.8.3, but it's in rc1 atm and not released as the latest stable tag yet, which is the reason for Atila's justified complaint.

Hm... so basically this was fixed back in December, but just hadn't been released? I think then this seems like an unfortunate, but temporary problem that should be OK for the future.

In any case, I think this shows we need to move our proving grounds to an external package. Much better to do it that way than to couple breaking changes on an experimental package with dmd/phobos fixes.
