So now I removed the repository version of dmd and dub, downloaded DMD64 D Compiler v2.072.0-b2, used dkpg to install it, and appear to get the same errors.

(Well, actually I removed the commenting out of the code, but it compiles and runs properly with ldc2.)

I don't think it's a problem of DMD. This is due to your gcc installation being hardened, that is, configured to produce PIE by default. To produce PIE, the linker needs to be fed PIC, which DMD does not produce by default. The -fPIC flags makes DMD produce PIC out of your sources. The problem is, libphobos2.a (the static version of Phobos) is not compiled with -fPIC, so even if your code is PIC, gcc will complain. The workaround is to use -defaultlib=libphobos2.so to dynamically link with the shared version of Phobos. Being it a shared object, it does not give any problem with PIE.

Looking on internet, I didn't find any clue about Debian shipping an hardened gcc, but this is the only cause I can think of for the behaviour you are experiencing.

Well, that certainly changed the error messages.  With
dmd -defaultlib=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libphobos2.so test.d
I get:
