ldc is pretty stable and there are many commits since the last stable
release which are needed. Normally we should support 1.0.0, but since
that is more than 6 months old I think we can skip that. Next round
will be stable 1.1.0 (I am building a git checkout right now because I
need the recent stack trace fix!). 

In all I suggest we support 1.1.0-beta6 and then on to 1.1.0 etc. We
can add new beta's on top of that again for those who want it.
