Indeed.
Please try to manually link first (without dub) by modifying
the command on which dub errors:
```
ldmd2 -flto=thin
-of.dub/build/application-release-nobounds-lto-linux.posix-x86_64-ldc_2078-F2904BE3C4DA237C077E5C2B0B23442E/knetquery .dub/build/application-release-nobounds-lto-linux.posix-x86_64-ldc_2078-F2904BE3C4DA237C077E5C2B0B23442E/knetquery.o ../../.dub/packages/gmp-d-master/gmp-d/.dub/build/library-release-nobounds-lto-linux.posix-x86_64-ldc_2078-B287F67CE5FF6145BC229790CFB09607/libgmp-d.a phobos-next/.dub/build/library-release-nobounds-lto-linux.posix-x86_64-ldc_2078-F0F2FDB01B8401C04D657BCC145D46A5/libknet_phobos-next.a -L--no-as-needed -L-lzstd -L-lgmp -L-lc -L-lreadline -L-lz -L-lbz2

Yes, that works!
I'm no dub expert and I don't know how to pass flags to the
_compiler_ for the link step.
Would be good to figure that out with the dub folks.
For a stopgap solution:
I think what you are doing is passing
`--compiler=<yourpath>/ldmd2` (note: LDMD) to dub when building,
and you get separate compilation+linking. If you'd use
`--compiler=<yourpath>/ldc2` (note: LDC), then you would not get
separate compilation+linking [1] and things work with just
setting `dflags`.
I've asked about the problem here:
