This gives some interesting behaviour with ldc-1.29.0 on 
AlmaLinux:

I can see ldc now pass ldc_rt.dso.o to /usr/bin/cc. The effect 
is, With the old ld.bdf (2.30), that the shared static this in 
md_static_import.d does get invoked, but not the one in main.d !? 
In any case, all is well with the newer ld.bdf as before.
