OK!
Somehow I had overlooked the most obvious documentation on
DerelictSDL2: the readme.md file on the github repository page
which displays these informations.. Sorry!

Yes, it was an issue unrelated to D or DerelictOrg but still some
problem encountered by clueless me on its quest to use SDL_Mixer
functions with D.. This might be of some help for a beginner like
me who had difficulties to find some straightforward
documentation to set everything up. The SDL and SDL_mixer
websites did not help much (..or I overlooked some stuffs again).
