Things were fixed in https://dlang.org/changelog/2.087.1.html 
thanks to Jacob.

It's not only DMD... Anything compiled with DMD < 2.087.1  since 
the introduction of native TLS won't work on Catalina.
It's been a major pain as it creeps up everywhere (e.g. IDE 
support doesn't work out of the box because of 
https://github.com/dlang-community/DCD/issues/610 ).

Jacob contacted Apple who didn't to care much for the issue:
