This is the easy part, but you also need a libgphobos2.so first ;-)

As ketmar said this is not implemented in GDC yet. I've filed a
pull request with some initial work, but I'm busy with other stuff
right now so I can't finish it.

https://github.com/D-Programming-GDC/GDC/pull/83

Main issues remaining:

* Requires changes to binutils linker scripts to locate ModuleInfo. We
  need to decide whether we submit patches to binutils or try to find
  some other way (like in ldc or dmd).
* There are some unresolved bugs with PIC codegen, 2 test cases fail.
