With full LTO, I'm seeing an additional 5% boost on Windows 
(-flto=full -defaultlib=phobos2-ldc-lto,druntime-ldc-lto). As 
they are using gcc LTO for the brainfuck2 benchmark too 
(https://github.com/kostya/benchmarks/blob/2777925c4e64987e83e9a53478910de080408057/brainfuck2/build.sh#L5), I wouldn't consider it to be cheating.
