Hm... 2.079.0 had it:

https://docarchives.dlang.io/v2.079.0/phobos/std_process.html#.Config.stderrPassThrough

I don't know what your "older version of dmd" was, but the earliest I 
can see it is 2.077.0.

Indeed, it was fixed in 2.077 (look for Bugzilla 17844 here: 
https://dlang.org/changelog/2.077.0.html)
