My guess is that you should be able to follow a shared library tutorial

Then just modify the GCC commands for DMD

gcc -Wall -fPIC -c *.c

Becomes:
dmd -fPIC -c *.d

Probably can leave alone:
gcc -shared -Wl,-soname,libctest.so.1 -o libctest.so.1.0   *.o

gcc -Wall -L/opt/lib prog.c -lctest -o prog

Becomes:
dmd -L-L/opt/lib prog.d -L-lctest

I have not tested this, but nor have I got it to work in C, but I only 
blame myself.
