In this case __gshared is a complete NOOP. __gshared has only an 
effect on variables. It prevents them to reside in the TLS, so 
that they can be used by any thread of the program (even if then 
critical sections or atomic read/write are then necessary).

Static means that the declaration is like if in the global scope:

void main()
{
     static struct Foo{}
}

is like

struct Foo{}

void main(string[] args)
{}

It's not considered nested anymore.
