The issue that caused me to go to Ubuntu 16.04 had to do with

go back and retest on Ubuntu 14.04 with a more recent LDC, it
may well have been corrected. The issue thread is here:

Ah, that might be the reason. I am not using LTO. You might
want to try a newer version of LDC as well since 1.5 is quite
old now.
I switched to LDC 1.12.0. The problem remains with LTO and static
builds on Ubuntu 14.04. Ubuntu 16.04 is required, at least with
LTO of druntime/phobos. The good news on this front is that the
regularly updated dlang2 docker images work fine with LTO on
druntime/phobos (using the LTO build support available in LDC
1.9.0). Examples of travis-ci setups for both dlanguage and
dlang2 docker images are available on the tsv-utils travis
config:
https://github.com/eBay/tsv-utils/blob/master/.travis.yml. Look
for the DOCKERSPECIAL environment variables.
