I'd prefer not having to maintain my own fork of the allocators 
code for another release.

Please target the stable branch when fixing something.
Also tagging as 2.069 milestone helps (can you actually tag that yourself?).
I don't examine PRs before branching or tagging a version and only take
what has been finished. The dates are announced early enough to plan
ahead, but it'll prolly take a few more cycles until everyone has the
next release in mind.

No. I would if I could. This one of the things I don't like about 
Github. (I can't tag pulls/issues even though I'm a member of the 
D-Programming-Language org)

Apart from https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15207, I'm 
seeing a huge +170% speed-up in 32-bit mode for optimized builds 
vs 2.068, something that is well appreciated :) 64-bit 
performance is mostly the same.
What changed in the backend?

When I wrote the section on backend improvements for the 
changelog, I wasn't aware how much faster the 32 bit code was. 
Would you be willing to run any benchmarks so I can add in actual 
numbers to that section.

When I use a specific host compiler, it still picks up the
dmd.conf provided in the package and doesn't find object.d.
Should I manually delete dmd.conf before building?
