I'm not saying that it's impossible, there is a workaround. But 
why should we have workarounds if we can have better support from 
the language and compiler?

Regarding your example, IMHO there is no difference for your 
users to do `dmd -version GL_46` or `dmd -define GLSupport.gl46` 
but the ability to set `GLSupport.gl46` constant from command 
line will simplify your code (your simply won't need `config.d` 
at all).
