Thanks for your help. I could resolve the issue. In the external 
library I link to, there are modules called "app.[...]". 
Apparently this caused all the confusion. The solution was to 
turn the file "source/app.d" into "module source.app;" Now 
everything is compiled and linked correctly and the custom 
function source.app.handleRequest is called.

I was already beginning to suspect a conflict of name spaces and 
modules as I was writing this post, only on Mondays my brain is a 
bit slow ...
