I see. And I'm not surprised. DLL support on Windows (at least
in DMD, not sure about LDC) is still not where it needs to be.
I don't know how much has changed since Benjiman Thaut's DConf
talk last year [1], but I don't recall any major announcements.
I expect there aren't a whole lot of people actively developing
shared libraries in D.

So what I would try in your situation is to add three new
configurations to the exeProject's dub.json. Use the "platforms"
directive to limit one to "windows-x86", another to
"windows-x86_64", and leave the other one empty. List the empty
one last and it should become the default on non-Windows
platforms. Move your preBuildCommands directive to the
windows-x86 configuration, and copy it to the windows-x86_64
configuration with the addition of "-ax86_64" to the "dub build"
command.
