It happens in a contract so checking for a version number does the job and the release version is not affected at all. I can still add dmd beta as D Compiler in the CI. I think that iz occasionally breaks because it covers many programming style, not because of its "edginess", which means that's its probably not worth adding it to the Project tester. Also i'd like to say that the policy that is that regression fixes are commited on stable and that the fact that they only come to master in a "sync operation" is a problem. In the travis yaml we have to test dmd, dmd beta (stable, not yet released) and finally dmd master (current working tree). The policy should be changed so that regression fixes are commited to both master and stable, allowing to decrease the CI complexity. The problem is mainly that testing a project with dmd beta is pointless. It's only useful 1 or 2 weeks before a release, which happens , let's say, 4 times per years, leading to a waste of computing resources at the CI service. With reg fixes put in master at the same time that in stable, testing 3 versions of the DMD compiler would not be necessary anymore, i think.
