GDC also fails.

I tried the memoryerror registration, but that doesn't give any more 
information.

It's unfortunate that LDC works, as that comes with a debug-built 
druntime/phobos you can use.

As far as I can tell, this problem has been occurring for a long time.

BTW, you don't need to define it in global space, just:

```d
void main()
{
    shared aa = ["abc": "123"];
}
```
