The problem might be Window's shell consuming the quotes, not that DMD ignores
them. A potential workaround would be to escape the quotes you want passed to
the linker. You'd have to look it up, I think it is different for cmd and
powershell.

Adding quotes around passed in linker flags would make it simpler, not having
to deal with escaping the quotes in the command.
