If we keep a "must compile with several past versions" policy

It prevent the use of newer feature of D in phobos.

It prevents the use of newer Phobos features in the compiler,
but we would obviously use the Phobos version that comes with
the host D compiler to compile the frontend, not the version
shipping with the frontend.
Maybe I'm missing something obvious, but I really can't see the
issue here.

No, that is what have been said : you got to fork phobos and ship
your own with the compiler.
