2) The feature will only work with the latest compiler. In other
words, if you want to update a 2.070 codebase to 2.072, you will
actually need to use two compilers. The porting tool released with DMD
2.071 to port 2.070 to 2.071, and the tool released with 2.072 to port
2.071 to 2.072.
I see what you mean. The moment the parser can't recognize the old
thing, you can't migrate.
But it doesn't have to be as you say. You can keep things working in a
deprecated state for longer than one version. As long as the old thing
can be parsed, it can be updated.
