Note that D's compiler floating-point literals parsing and

Can the improved parsing be added to D? (It would need to be
Boost licensed.)
If I am correct there is open PR that set DMD to use C’s
primitives for literals parsing. So, for compiler itself we don’t
need Mir.
If you mean Phobos - one can use Mir instead.
