If you want to have a config file, yet ignore it, you need to use -conf.  That
is why it was added.

In most cases that's as simple as

set HOST_DC=path\to\dmd.exe -conf=path\to\sc.ini

or

export HOST_DC=path/to/dmd -conf=path/to/dmd.conf

I'm aware of one issue with doing this on windows which will be fixed shortly.

Adding '-conf' would work just fine too.
