Well good old friend optlink doesn't support something like that. And
the LIB variable is overwritten by the content specified in sc.ini I
think.
dmd will pass any switch directly to the linker with the -L command. I
know optlink has a problem with lib paths, but such is not fixable by
enhancing pragmas, but by enhancing optlink.
dmd could add a library search path for optlink by adding it to the LIB
environment variable. The work-around for Visual D is to manually modify
sc.ini, appending %DMD_LIB% to the respective line and passing
additional paths through that environment variable when building.
(BTW: LIB is a dangerous environment variable for optlink because it is
widely used by other compilers, and libraries of unsupported formats can
cause optlink to fail without reporting an error.)
If modifying optlink is such a hassle, it would be nice if dmd could
modify the LIB environment variable from a command line switch.

is a duplicate now.
